Im a die hard bears fan, i was upset when i heard this, he coulda been real good with the bears. line him up with julius peppers. that woulda been a scary combo.

@pizzlestuff yeah. but if gaines adams was still alive, the bears might not have gotten julius peppers.

i just broke the record for sacks in a single season with him in franchise mode in madden 10. in the third game of the season.

I almost cried when i heard this on ESPN Gaines wont be forgotten, RIP.

[dkooker46]

i know. he was my favorite DE in the whole league. RIP

Why isn't his death a bigger deal? There is practically no coverage or details on it. He was a role model. Not one of the thugs ESPN likes to put all their coverage on. It is so sad. RIP Gaines Adams. You're never forgotten.
