A six year old, riding his bike, was run over and killed in a no passing 25 mph zone on the side of a rural highway.
Didn't even see it on the local news.
Maybe tomorrow.
Too soon?

Regardless of the path in life I chose, I realize it's always forward, never straight.

@Pricknick I agree we will hear this all day every day for the next week but hear nothing correct about anything else. I am so tired of this kind of media bs. What about all of the rest of the young people that dead because of gun violence and our bombs around the world. Silence!!!

@Pricknick before they let news people release it. If it takes a while to locate and inform family, it can be a long time before news has it. At least, that is the way it is supposed to work.

@Pricknick

to skip essays you aren't interested in. You might not care about this, but I thought the video of his last game might interest others. I was at the game and he put on quite a show.

Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.

He went directly from high school to the NBA, none of that college route most pros take.
Proved his chops in playground courts. Extreme talent.
Think he peaked out about 5 years ago. Tough sport.
Meteoric rise. Early fall.
