I just read on the CBC site that Nick Benjamin died last week of kidney disease.
I remember him playing, he was a solid offensive lineman and was an outstanding player nominee in his rookie season
It's too bad, he was only 46
Here's the CBC link: http://www.cbc.ca/sports/football/story ... jamin.html
That's terrible. 46 is so young.
My condolences to his family.
My condolences as well. He was a very good lineman indeed.
Oski Wee Wee,
I remember Nick being the 1st pick in the draft. Sad to hear about this.
That's sad news.
He was also a former Oshawa Hawkeye.
It really bothers me to see anyone die before they reach a ripe old age, but 46 years is truly sad.
Condolences to his family.
