Ummm, obviously someone cares, enough to pay athletes and franchises and coaches etc.... millions of dollars to be in their commercials and wear their shit.
Its really not that difficult of a concept to grasp. you are the moron. unless this is a troll attempt, which I dont think it is, because in other threads you have proven yourself to be an idiot.

How bout this, instead of worrying about it, do something. Give all of your paychecks to the doctors.

wouldnt*

X2 this guy is a complete moron. He can't seem to grasp simple concepts.

Sure.. He wasnt HALF the man I am. But he did have millions of dollars more than me for sure. Reguardless hes gone and he shouldnt have died. Its not like I wanted him to die or anything. Its just athletes are over-paid in society and doctors should make more money. I dont care if athletes entertain blah blah blah. I guess my opinion is looked at much differently than others. I believe police officers, teachers and doctors are WAY under paid and athletes are WAY over-paid.

Darrent Williams went out the same way earlier this year, at the same age too. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

sux, saw it this morning on espnews. Only 24 yrs. old //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
And it was a shot to the leg, how'd he die from that. Of course i've never been shot so i'm not gonna question it too much

remember the scene in black hawk down, where the guy got shot in the leg and they had to clamp that artery, be cause it was a main artery? Same thing.

femoral artery

Makes me sick to hear such a talented young man had to die like that. Now there's a wife without a husband and a daughter without a father, because of a STUPID act of violence. God bless you Sean, RIP.

After doing a lot of reading on this subject, something doesn't make any sense.

He got shot on the main part of his femoral artery. What kind of random burglar/robber aims in that area? More than likey they'll aim @ your upper torso/head.

I have witnessed my fair share of shootouts in the hood. I have noticed 1 thing. negros cant shoot for shit. Out of the 5 shootouts I witnessed last year, noone got hit. I think him getting shot was a lucky shot. He shot twice, in a small bedroom and only hit a person once.

My cousin's friend tried to rob someone, in a barbershop the size of a living room, shot 5 times, didnt hit the 2 people he was aiming at. Guns in the hands of the untrained, pretty much what it comes down to.

yeah but i could see that being the case if he would of bled out at the scene or on the way to the hospital. hasnt he been in the hospital a couple days? they couldnt do something for him in those couple days?

and on the subject of athletes being overpaid.....if the franchise is bringing in that kind of money why shouldnt the athletes get their share? why should the owner sit there and collect all that money for doing nothing other than being rich and buying the team? i mean hell id like to see the numbers but id say you probably have a better shot of being a doctor or winning the lottery for that matter than being a professional athlete....clearly they work hard to make that money.

I read that he flatlined twice on the way to the hospital due to blood loss. They did all they could for him. He was too fargone.

i have no issue with the teams paying players but i take issue when they dont give back to the cities that support them and when they ask citizens to pay most if not all the costs for new stadiums lol

He's been with his girlfriend for 7 years, don't be a moron.

his dad was/is a police officer (maybe even a police chief), he was trying to be a propper parent for his kid. he was not out clubbing on the town or dealing drugs from his house. if he was a "bad guy" his teammates wouldnt have said what they did......
