The NFL should do something with his legacy. There is much for pro athletes to learn from this mans short but magnificent life. Such a an unselfish man, I am also saddened by his death, as I am of all the young men and women who have died over there.

He is an American Hero. He is what is great about this country.

My condolences to his family and the rest of the families of those who die daily for the Bush "hOILy" war.
Here was someone that we can all respect. Someone who gave up the "American dream" to fight so others like us can pursue their dreams. If only there were more like him who would put their lives on the line. Unlike our politicos who are willing to put others in danger to keep their positions of power.

Rest in peace Mr. Tillman.

He was not fighting so that we could pursue our dreams.

Why is he such a role model? What makes his death so much different from any other American that has died in this misguided war?

Re: Pat Tillman loses his life
 

He wasn't in it for the $ - what do you think he was there for if not his sense of patriotism?

Re: truely a role model for all
 

They way he lived his life both on and off the playing field and on and off the battlefield.
Boris, please don't try to politicize his death or that of any other soldiers.
