Apparently somebody flashed gang signs at him in the parking lot. But that's it.

For real, I usually make fun of people who get all choked up when someone famous dies, but I'm all kinds of upset about this. On the one hand, I'm really angry. On the other hand, I don't want to be angry because I suspect people getting angry is what caused this whole mess with Darrent Williams. From what I've been hearing, some "words" were exchanged at the club, and somebody was bothered enough by that to open fire on a limo and an awesome young man is dead. I'm angry that all this time has gone by and we don't know who shot Julius Hodge and his life is STILL messed up from what happened. Do we know who shot Joey Porter? Why do they shoot athletes in Denver? How many unsolved murders are there in this state, anyway, and what in the hell is anybody doing about it?

I don't know. Maybe anger is okay if you figure out a constructive way to get over it, and maybe I can do that.
