This story sickens me. The thing that bothered me most about losing ST was the fact that his daughter would grow up fatherless. Belcher took his child's mother AND father, and irrevocably shattered two families.
I couldn't care less about the suicide, cold as that sounds. If you want to go, fine, go. But DO NOT take anyone else with you. I can't have sympathy for Belcher, I'm sorry. But my heart definitely aches for the family members involved. Can you imagine, as a parent, watching your child (adult or not) killed in front of you? Good Lord.
After that, my thoughts turn to Romeo Crennell and Scott Pioli. I don't know what went down there, other than that he thanked both gentlemen for all they had done for him, before turning the gun on himself. I hope they don't have to live their lives wondering if they could have done something, ANYTHING, that might have led to a different result.
I pray for the families, and the witnesses to this senseless tragedy; and for the Chiefs players who will take the field tomorrow with overwhelmingly heavy hearts. I'll root for them tomorrow. Not because I have any respect at all for Belcher. I couldn't have less. But because they are moving forward in spite of today's events.
God bless everyone affected by today's horrific events. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
