Lions defensive end Corey Smith, Raiders linebacker Marquis Cooper, and two others are missing in the Gulf of Mexico. The four friends left in a fishing boat at around 6:30 a.m. Saturday, and they haven't been seen since. The Coast Guard is currently searching approximately 50 miles off-shore for the fishing boat they left in, which is believed to be in distress possibly due to extremely choppy waves.

All four people are in my thoughts and prayers.
