When someone's life ends I try not to focus on the end of their life but on the life they lived and those that are left behind.
that is a great idea. I wonder if it will happen. I was thinking of one of Sean's peculiarities his various alterations of the uniform, whether it was the socks or the tape on his fingers. I wouldn't mind seeing the guys do some of that as well. And we know Portis has no problem paying a fine to express himself.
