Mosi Tatupu has passed away.

Sadly the radio is reporting that Mosi Tatupu has passed away in Hawaii at the age of 54. No reports of a cause as yet. Sad....the guy was awesome on special teams. Patriot Nation is sad today. RIP Mosi.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Very sad news. He was so much more as a Patriot than just a backup running back and special teams player.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

he was a great blocking back and a solid citizen. I recall he blocked for Sam "Bam" Cunningham at USC and with NE.

I guess I just showed my age.

He was so young, seems like he was just playing football a few years ago.

I remember an episode of the Simpsons...King Homer, a take off on King Kong, where the Island native chief was yelling at Homer and kept saying Mosi Tatupu....Mosi Tatupu.
