Tragedy at Sea


The story of the four football players, including 2 current NFL players, who were lost after their boat capsized, turned into the bizarre with the release of the Coast Guard’s official report thru a Freedom of Information request granted on Monday, March 16th. The report states that the first night one of the men “freaked out” took of his life jacket and disappeared. Later that night another became unruly, threw punches, took off his life jacket and dove down and never resurfaced. On the second day the third thought he saw land and attempted to swim to it never to return. 4 men, in top physical condition, all football players at the highest level with a lifetimes worth of mental toughness beaten in to their psyche and only 1 survives. If the report is accurate 3 actually suffered some kind of emotional or mental collapse that led directly to their deaths. Why, why 3 out of 4? What did one have the others did not? Faith, love? Seems there is more to this story. Much, much more.
