"I knew some of the guys who were on the plane, so it's complicated," Kotscho said early Tuesday. "One of the guys is a former Brazilian press agent and we worked together many times. It's really sad because … people just see the glamour of flying around and the guys playing, they don't see how many hours they fly, how [much] time they spend out of their houses without their families. 76 people died, but can you imagine how many wives, kids, family members, friends who are affected by the tragedy."
