RIP Nick Adenheart
As you all must know by now, Angels pitcher Nick Adenheart has tragically died at the age of 22. 22. 22. Too young for someone so promising to die. Too young at all. Adenheart had a great baseball career ahead of him, only to be ruined by an idiot drunk driver. It's not right. Adenheart pitched the best game of his career, only to be killed hours later. What kind of cruel world do we live in? Why is it that the best people die, the people who do things the right way, who play by the rules, why do they have to suffer, when others who play by their own rules and take life for granted get to live on. I refrained from writing this for awhile. I'm not sure why. Maybe because it's just so shocking. Maybe because I didn't want to believe it. Either way, it's not right. Adenheart, by all accounts, was a tremendous kid, with tremendous talent. He didn't throw it away. He's not one of those guys who can only get by on talent, character be damned. He did things the right way. And he gets punished. Why? For now, we're only left to cherish his life, ask for answers. But, if there is a lesson to be learned from this, you got to live life to the fullest. Because you never know when it can all be taken away. Rest in peace, Nick Adenheart. The world will miss you.
