Thats a death every week in the NFL.
%wise greater than any amount of gun deaths ( if you consider how few people are in the NFL compaired to legal gun owners)
Shame to lose a 25 year old.
Let's see if Costas calls for a ban on automobiles ...........or drinking............
Mercedes is the new KKK. If they didn't put the cars in the hands of these kids...Quote:

I agree that this was a tragic event. It was not an accident as the driver made certain decisions about driving and drinking before he imbibed. /off that soap box.
Anybody else going to make a list of advertisers on Sunday Night Football tommorrow and then send them notes to the effect that Costas is costing them business? I figure this is the only real way to make any inroads against Costas.
sad

For a normal citizen: I have no tolerance for drunk driving, if you can afford the alcohol you can afford the taxi ride home.
That said: the driver is a PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL PLAYER FOR THE NFL. He could afford the whole dang taxi company,...He could start his own personal taxi and cheuffer company! They make millions! He cost an innocent life,...What a jerk.
RIP Jerry Brown Jr.
I feel for Mr Brown's family.
{Yep, I'm a Redskins fan but this still ticks me off! Loss of life due to negligence, just like the poor child shot by his own dad ignoring basic safety rules! Sadly cut short by stupidity!}
