    The fact that there were people in the stands that were not on their feet makes me sick. This man is a hero, get on your feet.

    Actually taking a grenade for someone to save his comrade’s life as opposed to singing about it to make money = U.S. hero vs. Bruno Mars. Fuck Bruno Mars. This corporal exemplifies America.

    He even ran to the catcher to shake his hand so he didn’t have to keep walking.
