The first thing I thought when I read this was "sounds a lot like another story of drunk college student leaves bar and falls into river" and now you come at me with that link. Wow.

This doesn't look good, but I hope we get a surprise and everything turns out alright. Best wishes for the Philbin family.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

They just said on the radio they found a man who fit the description of Michael and believed the age to be between 20-25 as the latest news. Apparently they didn't check Twitter.

Terrible news for the Philbin family. As a parent, you never want to have your children pass away before you...especially so young. Tragic.
