Makes football seem utterly irrelevant. If the league makes the team play this Sunday I'll honestly be shocked.
I'd be surprised if they don't play.
Agreed. The game will go on. People die. It's sucks, and it's hard, but that's life.
What the hell are you talking about? Plenty of people die not of old age or disease. And actually, I don't assume 25 year old millionaires aren't[i] on hard drugs.

The point is not how and when but trauma. The trauma is great under any circumstance but for the players on the team a few days off would lessen the shock. The player is gone but the teams emotional condition is the focal point now. Plus in all cultures there is a grieving process.

Probably would've been more painful and gruesome if he stabbed her to death.

No one is saying he was a good person. All signs point to him being one up until this point though.

A lot better chance to escape a knife or a fist than a gun.

Im not anti-gun, I am for gun control though. Unfortunately it wont stop people that shouldn't have them from getting them one way or another.
