It feels so much better to talk about this without worrying that you'll sound childish for caring so much about a football player. Here, I feel like it is understood. I guess I don't know how to put what I'm trying to say into words but I hope you all get my drift...

I'm thankful for this site too. I haven't been posting much lately because I've been really busy with my new job. Plus, now that I live in Baltimore I'm not around as many Skins fans so not too many people around me have the slightest idea of how much this means to me. I've only known these people for 3 weeks so they don't know how important this entire team is to me, and they don't realize that I've lost a meaningful person in my life. Obviously I didn't know Sean personally but when you follow someone so closely you start to feel like you know them, but I guess you all know that all too well.
It just so happens that we don't have training today and i basically have nothing to do but hang out on the internet. I'm glad i have this site and i don't just have to sit here re-reading the same articles over and over.
