Cedric Benson, short-term Packer RB, dies at 36

Played five games for Packers in 2012 (no, I didn't remember); killed in a motorcycle-van collision

Benson, 36, was involved in a motorcycle crash with a minivan in northwest Austin, where he played college football at Texas, that left him and one other dead plus two others injured.

Law enforcement agencies reported that the crash took place at 10:22 p.m. when a motorcycle hit a white minivan that was pulling out onto the roadway. According the the Austin-Travis County EMS, there were a "vehicle and person on fire."

36 is much too young, even for people who messed up their lives.
