Go Spoon! The RIGHT choice.
That’s the biggest thing.It's pretty clear that many would rather complain about who the Hawks didn't take, instead of just pulling for the guy they DID take.
What a great point! Carter still has this on his conscience, no doubt, a moment of playful innocence turned tragic. Such things DO change people. (Assuming Carter HAS a conscience and isn't a Narcissist + Psychopath) Many athletes have gotten serious after losing a loved one, even a friend, and approached things with a new dedication and effort afterwards to honor the memory of the one they lost*. We just don't know how Carter will respond, or if a positive change in approach will be a permanent one or fizzle and go back to business as usual. So you're saying there's a chance? (Jim Carrey Dumb and Dumber animated GIF omitted)I have pointed these things out, the posters will ignore it to support their stance. I have also pointed out that seeing friends die like that changes a person in almost every instance, which they also ignore.
You've missed the point.Let's be clear. Henry Ruggs had a BAC twice the legal limit when his accident happened. Jalen Carter wasn't intoxicated. The reckless driving occurred in moments; we know this from the pieced-together security footage: one car sped away, the other tried to pass them, and within thirty-sixty seconds, the accident occurred. Similarly, the driver was drunk and wasn't wearing a seatbelt. So, is he really Henry Ruggs the 2nd?
Jalen Carter did not speed away to cover his ass. That's patently false. We know that from the 911 call immediately after the crash. He eventually left, by the urging from someone at the scene (also in the 911 call), but came back to answer questions when contacted. It's worth mentioning that there was absolutely nothing he could have done to change the situation.
