Just need to get up on my soap box and let out this frustration!
Why are sports figures more important then our soldiers???
A local boy who was only 19 years old was killed in Iraq just the other day. All the news said about him was where he lived and his age....thats it!!!!
Sports figures get hurt and now this pitcher was killed in an airplane crash.... ITS ALL OVER THE NEWS.....they go on and on and on about these people!! So they know how to play baseball or football......BIG FUCKING DEAL!!!!!!! It's horrible that this pitcher was in that crash BUT its equally horrible that this 19 year old kid lost his life fighting for our country so that those guys CAN play ball!! Give him and the others like him recognition they deserve!!
These guys get paid tons of money to play a game! Our soldiers are putting their lives on the line for the rest of us and get paid very little for it! That is sooooo wrong!
Just had to get that out! :)
