October 11, 200619 yr Unbelievable. We have the news on in our sales room on the plasma on the wall. I saw Lidle's picture pop up and I just figured he was being interviewed b/c we have the TV on mute. This is shocking news. Prayers go out to his family.
October 11, 200619 yr Whoever it was, it appears to be a suicide to me. 3 earned runs in 1.1 innings pitched in the playoffs is REALLY bad, but I don't know if I would KILL myself over it... I wonder what happened.
October 11, 200619 yr They found Lidle's passport on the street below. It would appear that Lidle was the pilot, and he was alone, but it has not been 100% confirmed.
October 11, 200619 yr Pretty sublime sight I saw walking home. 6th avenue (which goes uptown), as far as the eye could see there were sirens and lights. Terrible news about Lidle, terrible.
October 11, 200619 yr If I recall correctly, some dude killed himself the same way in Tampa a few years ago. My prayers are with his family, but not with Lidle. Suicide is a selfish thing in itself, but if other people were killed along with him, then that's just horrible.

Suicide is a selfish thing in itself, but if other people were killed along with him, then that's just horrible. where are the reports that says this is a suicide...people shouldn't assume anything...damn early reports show the plane was having issues....how can anyone assume that Mr. Lidle killed himself. Anyhow thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family in this time of need
October 11, 200619 yr RIP Never thought that it would have been a Yankee player on board. Makes you wonder how things would have been different if the yanks continued in the playoffs.
October 11, 200619 yr They found Lidle's passport on the street below. It would appear that Lidle was the pilot, and he was alone, but it has not been 100% confirmed. Reports say he owned the plane and was piloting it.
October 11, 200619 yr There was a distress call, it likely isn't a suicide. More likely a mechanical failure.

According to the news, it was a mechanical failure of the plane. R.I.P Cory Lidle
