I hate Pat Tillman

So, I'm sitting here, using every bit of energy I have left holding back the tears as I watch the seconds tick away on the Bulls' season. I really have to thank the Bulls for putting together an outstanding season that truly makes me proud to be a lifetime fan. Our team is young with a great nucleus in Deng, Gordon and Hinrich. Tyrus Thomas is quickly maturing and showing some promise with some insane athletic ability. We've also got the Knicks' first round pick, which is not only a lottery pick, but has the potential to being Kevin Durant or Greg Oden, which would systematically cause my heart to stop if that premise presents itself. Chicago is loaded for the next few seasons, and with a few decent moves and draft selections (how about some post scoring and another rebounding presence?), we could be knocking on the door for a title.

47 seconds left.... it feels like I'm about to die... and of course, on ESPN's website, they're still talking Pat Tillman. Pat mother fucking Tillman. Here's the lowdown on Pat Tillman for those of you who are left in the dark. Tillman is a former defensive back for the Arizona Cardinals. After a few seasons of playing, he turned down a large contract in order to pursue a career in the military. While overseas, Tillman was killed by friendly fire. Since his passing, the stupid military has spent jillions of dollars on this stupid moron who was potentially killed by friendly fire.

Seriously, who fucking cares? We've had THOUSANDS of soldiers who've gave their life in the line of duty protecting our country. Just because this asshole gave up a comfortable life because he felt obligated to do so, we need to spend all of this god damn money and resources on him? Give me a fucking break. Why not investigate all of the other questionable deaths? Just because they're "average" citizens, they aren't worth our time. Fuck that. It's disgusting. Tillman's dead. Losing his life was NO more valuable then any of the other men and women who died. Get over it, he's dead. Not coming back.

So here's a visual summary of tonight.





I need to sleep. God damn it.
