Eh, being awarded a medal of honor probably means you're either dead or watched a bunch of your friends die.

I just remember it sounded real cool when Jim Brown said it in Mars Attacks

Wrong. #1 needs to be "Name on the Stanley Cup"

1. His Excellency, President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin Dada, VC, DSO, MC, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Seas and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular.

Maybe it's just me, but I'd rather be an astronaut than any of these other things.

I can play the didgeridoo. Top that asshole, or stop commenting on the internet about stuff.

Where is this long list of crippled b-ball players?

The thing that sets Rose apart from other oft injured athletes is that everytime he gets hurt you can actually see his injuries and when they happened, knees buckling, ankles rolling, legs going in weird directions. Shit that happens from going hard.

or had just broken one or more of them in ways that would make an x-ray look like a work of inspired Cubism.

Honestly I don't care what your name is. I sick of seeing all this negative criticism about Derrick Rose. I doubt anyone here posting negative things about him could handle his situation even close to as well as he has handled it thus far. You guys call yourselves basketball fans? How can you guys even joke around…

Stop re-running stories.

Don't worry, I'm sure he just had a graduation to get to.

Oh, so you are merely trying to be literary here at Deadspin. Gotcha. Not the suicide mission I would have chosen, but whatever extends your knob, I guess.

Darryl Kile died of a heart attack, dude. What exactly is "marijuana overdose"?

I thought you were just an idiot who couldn't take a joke until I saw "marijuana overdose," and now I'm hoping that you're just pretending to be an idiot.

Darryl Kile died of coronary disease (heart attack) in Chicago. The autopsy said there was evidence of marijuana use but that wasn't the reason why he died from a blockage of the arteries supplying the heart.

You threw the "marijuana overdose" in there just to see how many people read the entire comment, right?

Drinking and driving isn't necessarily a "choice" someone makes. In fact, 95% of the time I've driven drunk...I actually had no intention of doing it. Does that make it right? Of course not...but rarely when people are this hammered...are they making a conscious, well-informed decision to drive while impaired. So…

I did once see a workhorse evolved into a jackass.

Wait, so is it still sad that he died?
