Just read the ESPN.com article about Sanchez and Mark Aidan great read...really shows that sanchez is a good human being. I really hope this guy becomes a stud one day on the field even more now it seems like he has a big heart taking the time to reach out to this kid
Copycats :smile: So I did remember this right? I did think it was just Theismann stirring the pot, but I wasn't sure if I actually heard Theismann say that or not.
The comments have been actually a pleasant read outside of the rare scumbag here and there. A huge outpouring of love for Mark and the Binkley family, this comment was poignant and it came from a Dolphin fan This made me remember Jimmy V's speech again and it made Mark's contribution to this kids final days that much more meaningful. We Jets fans should be thankful that we have Mark as OUR QUARTERBACK.
if you somehow managed to have stumbled upon new news, at least post the link so the rest of us would know what the hell you were talking about. but this time you're off the hook since its already been posted so many times...

Up until this point (in reading and posting about Aiden), I gave more praise towards Sanchez than to Aiden's own parents and family. How they have been able to deal and cope with this unfortunate situation their son was in, I will never understand, and hope I never have to go through. No parent wants to watch their child suffer, but especially not their child who is as young as 11 years old. If only this thread could somehow be passed to Aiden's family or friends of the family. I bet they would appreciate the kind words that are coming from us here at TGG, a place where Aiden could have possibly been a member of if he was not in the situation he was in. R.I.P.
Later in the show a friend of Aiden’s family called in and said that Sanchez called the funeral home and said that Sanchez picked up the bill for the funeral.

Such a sad, yet beautiful story. Prayers and condolences to Aidan's family and friends... All the respect in the world to Mark and the other members of the Jets family who made a little boy's last wish come true! Despite the sad ending of this story, it does a soul good to read something so positive and compassionate in the news today. As others have said, Godspeed little Jet. May you always find clear blue skies in which to fly...
Great story. Thank you for sharing. What a terribly sad situation. But its nice to an NFL player and a Jet leader - doing the right thing for the right reasons.
