RIP, Barbaro.
He fought so hard, but a series of cascading complacations over the weekend led to the decision to put him down this morning.
I'm impressed by his owners, who let Barbaro's comfort guide them through all of this. As long as he was happy and comfortable, they kept trying. When it got to the point where he could no longer be comfortable, when it would be just pain, they had the love and care to let go.
Barbaro saga ends sadly
