I am sure the number of dead will increase with the wounded that do not make it. Our world is becoming more crazy by the day.

wilfont LSU Fan Gulfport, MS on a Jet Ski Member since Apr 2007 9939 posts Online	re: You have to start wondering if any varsity athletes (Posted on 4/16/07 at 2:09 p.m. to JKM) quote: You have to start wondering if any varsity athletes The question is legit considering this is a board dedicated to LSU athletics and VT is on our schedule. With a student population of 26,000-27,000 the odds are easy to figure out. No one at LSU is hoping to gain an advantage from this tragedy. Only a sick person would even consider the thought.

I am sure the number of dead will increase with the wounded that do not make it. Our world is becoming more crazy by the day. According to the Roanoke Times: "Multiple people in the Virginia Tech athletic department have said all players have been accounted for on the football, men's basketball, women's basketball, softball, golf and men's tennis teams. Reporters are trying to contact coaches of the other teams."

Reporters are trying to contact coaches of the other teams." Considering that an in-state newspaper thought it "noteworthy" to not just report on this subject, but to be even be pursuing it further, I think I understand the original poster's state of mind in raising the issue. Just one of those "I wonder if" thoughts. His subject heading and the text of his original post does not in ANY way indicate a point of view that an athlete's life is any more precious than anyone else's. And everyone that understands the media knows that had a football or basketball player been a victim, there would be broadcast segments on both ESPN and the cable news channels singling him out as a terrible loss. When a plane crashes and 100 people perish, the media inevitably focuses on any victims who may be known to the general public - yet no one would say that the lives of any of the "John Smith" victims were any less valuable. It's just the way it is. Bet the Ranter regrets making the initial post at all. Bashing him and making wild accusations make such posters look petty and self-righteous. (And no, I have no idea who in hell the guy is, before someone suggests I am defending "a buddy" !!

You were implying something that was not there and you are the one out of line. ESPN reported on the fact no athletes were involved, so why are they not pieces of shite also. Now go have your love fest with John Brady.
