MY hopes and prayers are with Barbaro. Thanks for your efforts to spare us the horrid sight. There certainly have been more than enough replays of Prado pulling him up as quickly as he could.

I'm sorry you had to deal with that, too, Samm. It does seem like the media can be the biggest rubberneckers when tragedy hits, doesn't it? But I guess if people didn't watch it, they wouldn't show it. Vicious cycle.
