Default Brady Quinn's post game comments..

I know I could have posted this in the Football section of the forums but I felt it needed a little more exposure then for those who read that section.

If you arent familiar with what happened over the weekend in Kansas City with the Chiefs football organization, then this wont hold as much water, but basically, according to authorities, Jovan Belcher (a Chiefs player) shot his girlfriend multiple times early Saturday at a residence near Arrowhead Stadium, then sped to the team's practice facility and turn the gun on himself as head coach Romeo Crennel and general manager Scott Pioli watched in the parking lot. The couple had a 3 month old baby girl together.

Anyways, these are the post game comments made by quaterback Brady Quinn. Take a minute to read it. Its worth the time. Well said Brady, well said.

Sadly most people who read Quinn's comments are doing so on their phone while not paying attention to the other people in the room.

Thanks for sharing Axeman!

His words are so true! Such a sad story that happens way too often.

Brady is right on... I just texted this to my date over dinner and she totally agrees.

Seriously though, it is nice to see a non-cliche answer and he is absolutely right that 99% of the time "'How are you?" is asked with no real desire to find out anything important. Heck, I do it myself all the time.

Kinda makes one think eh?

"How are you" is the new nod of the head or handshake. No real meaning, but it acknowledges that you are aware of someone else being in your presence.

Thanks for putting this up. I wouldn't have found it otherwise.

I might print that off and let my students have a read.
