Steven Gleason (Former Saints Player) Diagnosed with ALS
anybody else really sad to hear this story?? ALS is quite possibly the worst disease in the history of humanity - it's like being buried alive because your mind stays perfectly awake while your body is completely paralyzed and you can't move, talk, breath or eat on your own. It's just torture I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy
He's so young to be getting it too (Age 34) as its usually people in their 40s/50s/60/70s getting it
daily pounding of the body from head to toe since childhood...
makes you realize that football stadiums are modern day coliseums, the football players are modern day gladiators that fight to the death and the spectators are exactly the same bloodthirsty crowd that cheers while the players kill themselves
we are nothing more than savages, defined by our primitive instincts
