[edit] Has he died, really?

If so, there needs to be a reliable source cited for it. I can't find any news of his death anywhere, under Brett Mycles or Rob Sager or Robert Sager. Without a reliable source, his death is an unsubstantiated rumour. I hope it's not true, but if it is, it needs to be recorded appropriately in the article, please. --Ebyabe 23:39, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Yes, he has really died. http://www.legacy.com/ToledoBlade/Obituaries.asp?Page=LifeStory&PersonID=86659760

[edit] Article is poorly written and contains unsubstantiated allegations

No public announcement has been made about his cause of death, and AFAIK his autopsy has not been completed/released or cited in any publication. It is scurrilous to prominently repeat rumours that his death was due to "congestive heart failure" and directly associated with use of "steroids and alcohol". He may have had a congenital heart defect, which has also been alleged elsewhere as having been a genetic family trait. Hopefully someone with (a) more information (substantiated), (b) more respect for the recently deceased and (c) higher journalistic and composition standards will avail themselves of the opportunity to rewrite this article.
