Damn. Those boys take their football seriously.

I doubt they were smart enough to take anything serious. Had they taken shooting serious of the value of their lives serious there would not have been a shooting.

More fodder for the leftist media to ban guns and gambling. Completely ignoring the fact that stupid people will always do stupid things and that bad people will always do bad things!

Cheer up.

The MSM is venal yet stupid.

Maybe they'll draw a different conclusion,
and use it as a reason to resume the drumbeats to abolish the NFL.
