Saw this on Motonews after Wess McCoy told me about it:

note from Steve bruhn's brother
Steve Bruhn AKA- TFS has had a massive heart attack and is hospitalized in critical condition. Our family asks that you please keep him in your prayers. With sincere thanks,
The Bruhn family

TFS is The Factory Spectator and a rocket scientist...he broke ground in getting digital photos published in moto media and we've all enjoyed his photos over the years.
I know many of you think you have issues with Steve, or maybe his politics, opinions, or Atheism rubbed you the wrong way, but TFS is a good dude...one of the best guys I know. I don't always agree with him, such as his reasoning for his public meltdown with DC, but I still love the guy.

Get well soon, ya Fat Bastard!

Wow. That's terrible. I met Steve in 2000 at Redbud.

Hang in there Steve.

Could a "seat bounce" help restart his heart?

He defiantly was a pioneer when it came to on-line news, moto forums, etc. He used to get the scoops on Motonews way before anyone else could print and mail them. I hardly ever agreed with the guy, but I definitely respect that he stood up for what he believed.

Get feeling better soon TFS!

We disagreed on almost everything except motocross. He was always willing to talk moto though and always cool to me. Good dude.

What a bummer!
Steve has always been one of my favorite guys from the boards & the sport in general.
Hope he makes a full recovery.

Wow, that's really tough news... I just pulled my yellow TFS bear out of the filing cabinet and out it back on my desk.

My thoughts and prayers are with TeeFuS.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

WTF!!!

He's the reason I joined this shit, and I have been a supporter of his since then. I love how his brain work. Damn, I'm speechless. He has become a personal friend as well but distance screw up much of that pleasure.

Damn, any person seeing in person, give him a big hug from me, my thoughts are totally with him and his family, I wish he was in care in Sweden, I would do anything in my "power" to help him out.

Hate one bad things happens to good people. The world is a crazy place... Sad
