Like I said, they learned their lessons early on.

fyi, many of those NFL players help out in the United Way, donate some of their millions to charity, etc., i. e. serve their country, while Tillman did not serve his country in the Middle East.

(he thought he was; later, of course, he discovered he was only serving corrupt pols)

Fever pitch? I slept late that day

I think it's a bit unfair & harsh to be too critical on Tillman for feeling compassion for the 3,000 plus who died on 9/11 & wanting to exact some revenge & shut down the al-Qaeda training camps in Afghanistan.

How was Tillman to know that Rumsfeld would be THIS incompetent. I mean, I'm as harsh on Don as anyone, but really, who could have known he'd have his head THAT far up his ass!?!?
EZ. Turn off tv. Open book.
