Some thoughts: Plane Crash, Todd Drew

Several serious notes from thursday i thought i'd share...

-

As most of you have probably heard, there was a plane that had to perform an emergency landing in the Hudson river today. Amazingly all 155 passengers survived, thanks to Chesley B. "Sully" Sullenberger III, the pilot of the aircraft.

i don't know about everyone else, but i find this story absolutely fascinating... 155 people surviving a crash landing... in the freezing cold Hudson river. Truly a Miracle.

No, David Wright was not aboard this plane... the Mets said so...

Blogger Todd Drew of Yankees for Justice died early thursday morning.

Before this afternoon, i'd never heard of Todd Drew, but i decided to read some of his work, and it truly touched me, as a baseball fan and as a person.

Take this piece for example, one of the last posts Todd Drew made.

Peter Abraham had a nice post dedicated to him, and it led me to this link.

Reading that article really changed how i view being a Yankee fan, i reccomend everyone read it.
