HOLIDAY, Fla. - One person was killed Tuesday after a plane registered to eight-time All-Star and two-time Cy Young award winner Roy Halladay crashed into the Gulf of Mexico.

It was not immediately known if Halladay was flying the plane.
Halladay's ICON A5 light sport aircraft crashed into the Gulf 10 miles west of St. Petersburg at about 1 p.m., the Pasco County Sheriff's Office said.
A viewer sent in video of the wreckage, of which the tail number of the crashed plane matched photos and videos of the aircraft posted on Halladay's Twitter account

Boy did Toronto SUCK when he pitched for them

I'd say he sniffed the WS when he went to the NLCS. Stop making things up.

winning 2 games in a 7 game series is sniffing the next series?

have to win 4 of 7 to get there.

 

3 would be sniffing.

Getting to game 6 is sniffing it. Wrong again.

That's sucks. Baseball players and planes. Boats too. Not a good mix.

Damn, that dude hadn't pitched since 2013 and he was only 40.. Sucks..

 

TB12 still going strong.

 

Defying logic really.

damn, one of the dudes in my original fantasy baseball league was best friends with Cory Liddle. Brings back the memory

 

Roy was one of my favorite pitchers ever

 

Weird moment. I was at Game 4 of the ALDS when Corey Lidle made his final appearance (two days before his death). Sitting two rows in front of me was a Yankee fan with a Thurman Munson jersey on.

I have a Munson jersey. I don't wear it though. All grown up

How many kids did he leave behind ? Ages ?

 

Sad.

 

Selfish fock, that's all that can be said.

 

Just like JFK Jr.

 

Rich and famous and allowed to fly before being ready.

 

 

His wife didn't want him flying, but he did anyway.

 

left her and their 2 kids (boys) behind.

 

:thumbsdown:

So, she is available now and the oldest kid has some potential as a pitcher. Score!!

 

and angry I am sure.

 

No better way to score with a married chick, than one angry with their hubby. allegedly

Apparently he told his wife before he left home, "you feed the dog and I'll feed the fishes".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What? Too soon? :unsure:

 

 

He always did have a good Sinker.

Recycle on the old John Denver joke:

 

He didn't shower yesterday before he left, but he did wash up on the shore.

So it's come out that Halladay was showboating moments before the crash. lowering his plane just feet above water and then pulling it back up into the air again. I saw a video taken from a boat where the passenger is saying 'what the fock' as he plunges down and then pulls it back up. Guess he dipped a touch too low and his nose his the water. Dumb ass fock.

The plane he was in is called "Jet Ski with Wings"

 

It's supposed to be able to bounce off water.

 

Not surprised that an amateur pilot would fock it up and die.

Maybe the water he hit wasn't the bouncy kind

He could still be a great guy but an idiot. That was focking stupid. Thank God he didn't hurt anyone else. Darwinism at its finest.

being a terrible person <> being a wonderful person.

 

more than one witness said he was showboating.

 

he's dead at 40, left behind 2 sons and a wife. Doesn't make him a terrible person, but sorta takes away the great person moniker.
