In response to "NY Post columnist Phil Mushnick: Adrian Peterson a terrible person despite son's death. -- (link)" by Tim

I guess he doesn't follow Torrey Smith on twitter.

From Torrey's twitter (and he is probably closest to knowing what Peterson is going through):

Playing after tragedy is therapy. Staying home doesn't change what life has thrown at you Playing in their honor is rewarding for the family

People forget that athletes are human sometimes...people deal with tragedy and mourning different ways...there is no right or wrong way

So to judge a person because you would've done it differently is stupid...truth be told you never know until you are in that situation


Also, Peterson was speeding, fast enough to be considered reckless driving. I dislike equating that with the drunk driver that killed Peterson's brother.
