A Noble Death

Yesterday, Al Lucas died one of most noble deaths possible, playing American football.

Lucas suffered a massive spinal cord injury when hit by two opposing players as he bravely attempted a tackle. He died later in the hospital, leaving a widow and a child. No word, though, if he actually made the tackle.

But the good news is his team won.

Rah! Rah! Rah!
