richard collier update 

 

according to espn.com, collier is paralyzed from the waist down and had to have one of his legs amputated, he was shot 14 times, it seems that they did not lead on to how serious he got shot at first, obviously his football career is over, its to bad to see someone who worked really hard and was about to make a good career for himself have it end so suddenly

Tragic

This is awful news and my heart truly goes out to Richard and his entire family. We should all remember to be very thankful that Big Rich survived this brutal assault.

I can’t stand to think this guy is out there.

Sad Outcome

Being a Colts fan I want to express my sorrow to the Jag org. and it’s fans for this very stupid act of violence done to Richard Collier by IMO a coward or cowards.

I know things are said between fans of each team in the heat of battle,but this is something all fans of all teams need to show respect for the player or players that do and might have something like this happen.

Again my hope is that he will be able to continue with out any other negative results due to this cowardly act.

Senseless

There aren’t enough words. I am truly speechless.

Tragic, indeed…to say the least.

Man, that’s a lot worse than I thought it was.

That sucks, guys. My sympathies.

Thanks for the kindness and consideration, guys.

That’s class, man. I’m sure Richard appeciates it, too.
