Wow

I just heard this on ESPN. Tragic to say the least. This kind of thing happens way too often and hits everywhere at one time or another but it just seems to me that Miami attracts it. Just a sad story.

My prayers go out to all friends and family of this young man. Tragic.

[Wireman]

I have been to alot of cities, and I just didn't like Miami. My wife and I decided to head on north to West Palm Beach and spend the night there.

 

God Bless this young man and his family, friends, teammates.

My prayers go out to him, his family, his teammates, coaches, and just everyone who knew this young man...

Best paragraph in the ESPN article:

 

Said Miami Central coach Anthony Saunders: ''He was a great kid, a Christian. He had everything going for him. He was a role model and a motivator."

With the heat The U takes, this seems like a great kid. And a sad story many will write off...
