" Brian Kelley stated : It was total devastation . I ' ve known Brad since ' 73 - - 36 years . I ' ve known him longer than my wife and my kids . Football was 11 years of our life . We had 25 other years when we were together , did things together and still are doing them together , us and LT and Harry Carson . It ' s sort of like losing a limb because the four of us are so close . To lose one of us is tough . It ' s even tough to believe it happened . . . . I ' m just going to miss him , miss seeing him at Giants games , miss him calling me about stupid stuff .
