If I had to play for the Arizona Cardinals, I would also give up millions of dollars and risk my life in a war

So what the hell happened exactly? "Fragged" what does that mean? Being serious here

His fellow soldiers killed him by mistake, A "Friendly Fire" accident.

I wouldn't

Sorry to tell the truth. You don't give up millions and leave you wife a widow and kids with no father to fight in a bullshit conflict. It's not like he went to defend the eastern seaboard.

Watch out, Super Vet is going to tell you what is / is not worth fighting for, and what their personal decisions should be...cause you know, he's been there and done that shit.

Pepperidge Farm remembers.

How long was "forever"? A couple days? ROFL

The enemy took advantage of Tillman nature and ran a middle screen.

Crap article. Blah, blah, blah...I am not saying the Army is blameless nor that Pat was a saint.

I wanted to read the facts of what happened. Maybe nobody knows.

I watched the Pat Tillman documentary earlier this week, pretty bad deal no matter how you slice it. Will likely never know the truth but I think it was accidental, I'm not saying its impossible but its hard to believe they would have murdered him, it's just too far off the scale for those type of individuals.

And damn I had forgotten how much a douche eDave was in this thread originally, ****ing wow.

Seems like a really weird time in history to randomly start bashing Pat Tillman. Dan posted a nice update that really has nothing to do with Tillman personally and people start taking shots?


Edit: I guess by “people” I mean Red Dawg.

Interesting read. I'm still fuzzy on the "fratricide" angle. Are they saying he was killed on purpose? Or accidental friendly fire?

EDIT
Never mind, I looked it up:
frat·ri·cide
/ˈfratrəˌsīd/
Learn to pronounce
noun
noun: fratricide

the killing of one's brother or sister.
"Cain justifies his fratricide with lethal logic"
a person who kills their brother or sister.
plural noun: fratricides
the accidental killing of one's own forces in war.
"the Vietnam War saw fratricide increase because of the close-in jungle fighting"

Did you actually read the entire thing? What behavior by Tillman would justify being shot three times in the head by a fellow American soldier? You say he wasn't a saint so I assume you are implying he deserves some blame in this? And the Army has literally no defense for how the handled this. None.
