Pat Tillman, 1976-2004
I was pretty shocked to hear yesterday that Pat Tillman had died in Afghanistan. We all pay lip service to ideas like duty, honor and country. We all feel a swell of patriotism and admiration for those who fall defending their country. But Pat Tillman was a person who really did put his honor, his sense of duty and his self to the cause of defending his country.
I hope the NFL dedicates the 2004 season to his memory. He was a great American. His death should remind us all that freedom isn't free. I hope everyone prays for his family and friends this weekend.
