Their businesses don’t shut down, their employers don’t send everyone home, the world doesn’t stop. Why is this one so special? Just wondering…
Are you serious? For one thing, most people don't drop in front of millions on national tv. The world has not stopped, but stopping the game was the right thing to do. I guess you've never had a good friend drop dead right in front of you. It kind of ruins your day to say the least. Where is your heart and why so bitter? Why does this bother you enough to post a remark like that? Just wondering...
