Sports & Politics This section is for all political sports talk. Regrettably we feel that in some instances there is no way to eliminate politics from football, basketball, and baseball hobbytalk. Do you pretend nothing is happening with the Warriors, Steelers, A's, etc? This section is for all political sports discussion. However, it is for civil discussion only. No insults aimed at members, political parties, or politicians will be tolerated. There is no warning. If you cannot be civil, you will lose your posting privileges on this site.

Default Eamon McEneaney, American Hero, (belated) RIP

I randomly came across the story of this gentleman and it has occupied my mind for the last couple days. College lacrosse star - credited with saving 65 people in the 1993 WTC bombing, then tragically murdered at the WTC on 9/11/01.

I really kind of hate to post this here because much of what is in this subforum is pure crap, but given the subject matter I figured it would have a longer life here than elsewhere.

Take a few minutes and read this piece on a truly remarkable human being.

Wish I could remember this daily. Sometimes we all get too negative.

"Every hour, every minute, every second of our lives is a precious gift. Don’t put off too long those things that you want to do. Make sure your priorities are correct and realize what is really important with your life now."

I agree though they probably wouldn't have very much footage to work with.
