God bless his family and RIP Todd.

“The world is so exquisite with so much love and moral depth, that there is no reason to deceive ourselves with pretty stories for which there's little good evidence. Far better it seems to me, in our vulnerability, is to look death in the eye and to be grateful every day for the brief but magnificent opportunity that life provides.”
― Carl Sagan
RIP. He lived a big, good life.

“True, we [lawyers] build no bridges. We raise no towers. We construct no engines. We paint no pictures - unless as amateurs for our own principal amusement. There is little of all that we do which the eye of man can see. But we smooth out difficulties; we relieve stress; we correct mistakes; we take up other men's burdens and by our efforts we make possible the peaceful life of men in a peaceful state.”
--John W. Davis, founder of Davis Polk & Wardwell
His life including the arc of his NFL career ought to be a huge inspiration to anyone. Amazing.
One thing I have learned in a long life: that all our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike -- and yet it is the most precious thing we have.

The fact that life evolved out of nearly nothing, some 10 billion years after the universe evolved out of literally nothing, is a fact so staggering that I would be mad to attempt words to do it justice.

Be kind to all, for everyone you meet is fighting a great battle.

Todd had a four-year run where he was arguably the best TE in the game. If he could have extended that run another year or two, he's probably in Canton. And he might still get there some day. The only thing Ozzie Newsome had over Todd was longevity.

I loved Todd Christensen despite being a Chargers fan. He was awfully young. Sad for his family.
