Postponing the Chicago game?

I'm not sure that moving the game would do much good anyway. The rest of the season is going to be tough no matter what. If anything, keeping busy is probably the best thing for the team right now to help keep their minds off of it. I think the offseason will be the biggest hurdle as that's when the players have some time off and the U guys typically hang out together in Florida.

I completely agree. Besides the external reasons for not rescheduling, anyone that has lost someone close understands that the best thing to do is get back to living life asap.

Sounds good. Love your screen name btw, welcome to the board.

Thanks bro!

It's an honor to be here.

The Skins cannot possibly be ready to play this Sunday and again next Thursday. No one can fault them if they lose both games. If I were one of the players, I don't see how I could not be distracted and emotional to the point where it would affect my ability to play my best.

Tragedy can bring out the best in people. Look at what Brett Favre did on the eve of losing his father. He had argueably his best game ever. I think if the players turn this into a "win it for Sean" game they will all play the way he played the game. They know how much Sean loved this team and football and he would want them to go out and kick some butt. It is horrbile what happened, but as it was posted above, sometimes the distraction of moving on with your life and get back to normal things is a good way to cope. I think the guys will play their hearts out and dedicate the rest of the season to Sean. I read somewhere that teams should be really concerned about playing the skins cause now they have something to rally around. Get into the playoffs for Sean as that is what he would have wanted.
