After losing 12 members of your family, how do you worry about a football game?

AAAARRRRGH!!! It was a frakin question, NOT an anaccusation of anything bad.

GODDAMNIT, some here are more sensitive than grade school girls.

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good. Oh Lord, PAALEEESE don't let me be misunderstood.

More power to Soliai if he can deal with it that way. I do not believe I could. His wife has to be crushed.

 

[greenmiamicat]

Just TERRIBLE.

Definitely sad. Best to him.

I've also been really happy with his progression - to the extent that we might not have to address a NT in the first two rounds in the 2010 draft.

Give that man the rest of this week OFF, Football will be here when he gets back, My prayers go out to the entire Solia Family.

The rest of the week? Give this guy as much time as he needs off. Some people will need more than a week. Some people wont need much time at all. I know from personal experience, although not of this magnitude. Sometimes people want to get back to work right away because it takes their mind off of it. Just let him deal with it whatever way is best for him. My deepest condolences go out to him and his wife.

Well said, and agreed. I went through three within a month earlier this year, and I could not think, let alone worry about work.
