R.I.P
George Best died the other night, which everyone was expecting... but Richard Burns former WRC World Champion passed away too. George Best dying didn't really affect me, as I haven't followed football recently... well ever. But the WRC is great, so the first English WRC World Champion passing away means more than a past football hero to me.
Whereas Best has been in the media for years with his alcohol problems, Burns had been suffering from a brain tumour for several months.
Ah well, I'm still in one piece...

It was a shock to me, and I only heard about it from an online forum I regularly check. Whereas George Best was all over the media for weeks.
Shows the difference between Motorsport and Football. I know which I'd rather watch though...
