Tragedy Aint Tragicomedy

The story of Darrell Russell, the promising number 2 pick of the 1997 Oakland Raiders, is just, well, sad. It was downhill well before today when he died, according to the AP, with a friend in a car that,

hit a curb,
tree,
newsstand,
fire hydrant,
light pole,
another tree
and an unoccupied transit bus.

Jesus, that reads like the script to a fucking Warner Brothers cartoon.

Does anyone else find this a bit too detailed and, I dunno, undignifying?
