On top of the Arsenal fan committing suicide this week after the club's CL's loss, it appears a key cog of their North London rivals has suffered a tragic loss. Tottenham midfielder Wilson Palacios has finally learned what happened to his little brother, who was kidnapped two years ago, as Honduran officials have located what they believe to be the remains of Edwin Palacios.
The younger Palacios had been missing for two years, although Wilson was paid a large ransom. Apparently, the remains were located after two people arrested admitted to the crime. Palacios obviously sat out Saturday's draw against Everton.
Truly sad.

Very sad all around.
Why was Wilson Palacios paid a ransom?
Typo. Palacios paid like half a million bucks or something in a ransom.
Holy Crap. MLS/Texas derby just got kicked to Deportes and 360 by men's college volleyball. Granted, the national championship game, but isn't that what ESPNU's for????
Um, is ESPN rethinking their whole "soccer"/WWL status, or are they just waiting for the price to drop on Setanta?
