I'm not an Eagles fan, but I respect(ed) Jim Johnson a lot. He was one of the best D-coordinators ever.

It spread to his spine which is why he was coaching from the booth last year. It's a shame...that's 3 sports people lost this year in this city.

Harry Kalas(who will always be missed...great guy)

Gary Papa, long time sportscaster who also died of Cancer.

..and now Jim Johnson.

Sucks.
