are you kidding me? man i remember reading how about hiim turning the nfl down to go fight. that really sucks. at least he died doing what he wanted to do no matter how friggin crazy of a decision that was

I didnt know it stored all the sent messages...OOPs/
Do you know who Pat Tillman is, he was killed in afgahnistan yesterday... He was the safety that turned down millions from the cards and rams to serve his country..... I gotta head out, later

Damn that really sucks. That guy is a badass.

 

[Ian Smith]

He was something else.... All the guys and gals over there are... It kind of disgust me now thinking about how so many of the NFL players acted last season,,, they have no idea what a true Hero is.

i was just reading about that. He was a Ranger. His brother is in the same platoon as him over in Afghainstan.

Here's a link to the story, I haven't seen any threads on the guy so far which is surprising. One of the local writers for my newspaper stated that the word hero was thrown around very loosely, a former heavyweight champion boxer(can't remember the bastards name) joined the marines and quit after two weeks, Pat Tillman joined the Rangers, went to Iraq, then to Afghanistan and fought to his death.
