Too young to go, wonder if he had some underlying heart problems.

Jamaican'Skin · 04-30-2007, 08:07 PM

Good player, great man. RIP

RIP Kevin Mitchell. Too many young people dying this year!!!

R.I.P. K-Mitch... I will remember his consistent play throughout his tenure.

EXoffender · 05-01-2007, 12:21 PM

RIP K-Mitch. You deserved to start at MLB.

According to this mornings article in the local paper, two sources who wished not to be quoted say the cause of death is believed to be sleep apnea. Kevin was truly a well liked person in the community here who never forgot his roots. He was one of two former Redskins to graduate from Harrisburg High. The other Kenny Watson. He's already missed here.

I had the pleasure of meeting Kevin back in 2001. He took time to talk with both of my daughters and me and seemed really pleased to meet us. He was a genuine nice guy. RIP Kevin and my thoughts and prayers are with your family during this difficult time..

One of my favorite players during the Marty ball era

God bless him and his family. Our prays are with his family.

Personally I don't see the need for tossing around the word steriods here until we have more info. In fact I think it's a bit disrespectful to his family.

If I thought Kevin Mitchell's family would read this thread, I certainly would have kept it to myself. And again, even if steroids were involved, that doesn't make his death any less tragic. If anything, I'd blame the NFL in this particular case for pushing these guys so hard.

You never really know who's reading here... and once the thread is indexed in search engines this thread could easily show up in search results for Kevin Mitchell.

This is from JLC's blog today:

Friends of Mitchell's say they have heard that sleep apnea and hypertension are two possible reasons for the enlarged heart and massive heart attack he suffered in his sleep Sunday night/Monday morning. The death of the 36-year old LB has deeply saddened many at Redskins Park and he will not be forgotten.

The Harrisburg native has a fund in his honor set up for deserving kids in his home town.

Anyone who would like to can make a donation to:

The Kevin Mitchell Memorial Achievement Fund
PO Box 405
