Default Sad day in sports...

Posted By: willy1

He is a big time hero. He not only gave his life for his country but he gave a very good life. I respect and thank all vets because they are all 10x the man that I could ever hope to be but he made millions, was idolized, had a new wife, was great at football and humbly walked away from all of that. The fact that he never held a press conference is really proof of his exceptional character. There was no ego or greater glory at all in making his decision. He just felt it was right to go off and fight for poor shleps like me. He is one of the great heros of my lifetime.

Thank you Pat!
