    Checked the World Cup thread, didn't see anything, and if this ends up being anywhere close to what happened, it's gonna warrant a separate thread anyway. Grant Wahl's brother says Grant, who was Tweeting five hours ago, has died in Qatar during a tournament in which he took on the very powerful and murderous establishment.

    Absolutely no words.
    I've read his works for 20 years.
    You can't tell me he just randomly died, either.

    Dude wasn't even 50, and 5 hours ago he was live tweeting the Netherlands match.
    No damn way he just up and died.

    Just awful and yes, possibly terrifying. Can't 100 percent jump to the conclusion. But the mind goes to one place.

    RIP.
