So you cheered the crash in We Are Marshall?

You are completely missing the point.

And they are not asking you or me for a thing. They are asking for help from the NFL and the NFLPA which they helped build.

Who said we are upset because they are asking money from the government? We understand perfectly that they are asking for help from the NFL and PLayer's Association. However, the time to deal with your employer is at contract time. It ain't retroactive. Sounds like they should have saved a little of that pay for the future instead of lavish lifestyles and mansions and gold necklaces.

You lost me. I will have to go and look that up.

On the evening of November 14, 1970, Southern Airways Flight 932, a McDonnell Douglas DC-9 which Marshall University chartered to transport the Thundering Herd football team to Greenville, North Carolina and back to Huntington, West Virginia clipped trees on a ridge just one mile short of the runway at Tri-State Airport in Ceredo, West Virginia and crashed into a gully. The team was returning from their game against the East Carolina University Pirates — an eventual 17-14 loss. There were no survivors. In all, seventy-five people lost their lives. The dead included the thirty-seven players, Tolley and five members of his coaching staff, Charles E. Kautz, Marshall's athletics director, team trainer Jim Schroer and his assistant, Donald Tackett, twenty-two boosters, and five crew members.

Oh. Now that is tragic.

Are you sick in the head? That is just completely wrong for you to be hurling that accusation at people.

It is also completely off point and off your topic. A tragic crash has no relationship to the injuries athletes obtain when working in their profession.

I think I got the 'point' just fine. I also have a pretty good idea what sort of sick minded individual you are.

Are you retarded?

Why do you keep saying the same things over and over?

Are you a very good driver?
