The world is a little darker today...

Pat Tillman, the Arizona Cardinal Safety that gave up $3.6 million to join the U.S. Army after 9/11 died today in Afghanistan. We all said 9/11 changed us, a and I believe it did to some extent, but here is someone who gave up a life of comfort, playing a game, to serve his country as an Army Ranger. I'm sure he's pretty upset at all the media attention that is being paid to him right now, as there are other soldiers who have died today. This is a guy who told Wolf Blitzer no, when Blitzer wanted to do a interview with him. Tillman told Blitzer he'd do the interview after Blitzer interviewed every other soldier. Blitzer went home without the interview. Eli Manning can eat his heart out.
