I remember him!
He wasn't that old, was he?
Too bad...
RIP

Re: Mosi Tatupu died on Wednesday
Only in his 50's... Sad deal.
Guess his son still plays for the Seahawks these days. One reporter gave a pretty good tribute to him.
"When they write the history of the NFL, Mosi Tatupu won't even merit a footnote. When they write the history of the New England Patriots, the same may be true. He had no statistics to speak of, unless you count the bodies he left strewn around NFL stadiums when he was covering kicks and blocking linebackers while teammates got the glory.
"He was the kind of guy you find on every job site, factory or mill. The guy who shows up every day. Never late, never sick, never complaining. The guy you don't notice until he's gone. He was the man every team -- or company, or family -- needs."
