The last thing on your mind when you're burying your brother is if you're going to offend people with your language. He spoke from his heart. And I could easily see how annoying it would be if people kept saying things like, "He's with God now" when he was clearly an Atheist, along with his brother's.

Not only did Pat have balls of steel, but so did his brother.

Having read, Jon Krakauer's Where Men win Glory, the biggest thing that I took from that book was how Pat Tillman stood up for the little guy, very much like my dad and Pat nearly lost his scholarship to ASU for beating up the wrong guy who he thought was picking on a fellow teammate, all I can say to Pat's parents is thank you for raising men of integrity and character

It’s been at least a decade since I watched Pat’s brothers speech. I remembered it well and I won’t forget it.

The balls on his brother to say that. I would’ve never had the courage to tell people that. Especially with it being a massive crowd.

He didn't say it as a gotchya. He said it for his brother.

Just cuz it's a national story doesn't mean you have to adapt it to the national scene. I'd be a little ticked off if my catholic brother died and someone from a different religion/no religion came in and told me that he was with some different god I didn't believe in/with no god at all .

A true hero. Pat laid down absolutely everything for this republic, and with no expectation of any reward other than knowing that his sacrifice would benefit a nation that (supposedly) stands for the life, liberty and happiness of all people. When we send young men and women to die for us, they don't go to heaven. They fucking die. We need to keep that in mind, for their sakes.
