Torrey Smith's Brother Killed in Accident

[AsianRice]

man, that's heartbreaking to hear one of your family gone forever; indescribable feelings and my prayer goes out for his brother and family....

Sources have confirmed Smith will play and I believe he will play too cuz he wants to somehow dedicate his best performance to his younger brother. It's sort of like self-consodences......

/pray

[Purple Nurple]

The courage and dedication it must take to play football on a national stage after this is mind-boggling. Good luck tonight, Torrey.

Condolences to you and your family. Burying kids is a real tragedy.

[sliceanddic3]

Sad stuff. I heard it first from Sal on ESPN. RIP Tevin, and my condolenses go out to his entire family.

[BloodRaven]

As someone who has lost a father, brother, sister and daughter in my immediate family alone I know this is going to galvanize his life and resolve like nothing else, the game is just an extension of life and as a man you live or die by deeds.

God bless Torrey Smith.

[/quote]who quoted that? That grammar doesn't seem like a reliable source to be fair

[HoldingCall]

That is a sad loss that is much bigger than football.

[Moderator 3]

I will support whatever decision he makes, but if it were me, I would be with my family tonight. That's why there are backups in the NFL. Someone will fill in for him. We'll miss him, but I'm sure his mother needs his presence now.

Sit this one out, Torrey. I've heard of players coming back a few days after a loved one's death, but we're talking about less than 24 hours here. He should really be with his family tonight. I'm sure Deonte, LaQuan, and Doss can handle the load for the night.

@arnie_uk

just quoted it from AsianRice ... ESPN reports too that he wants to play!

It was more a "if he plays" from me!

And about the [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]grammar ... i don`t care about things like that... i am german and english isn`t my native [/font][/color][url="http://www.dict.cc/englisch-deutsch/language.html"]l[/url]anguage... ravens have alot of international fans...

[da#1ravensfan]

My condolences go out to Torrey Smith and his family for the passing of his brother. Torrey Smith helped raise his siblings so I know it's hurting him to his heart. He deserves time off he doesn't want to want to play tonight with a heavy heart. Torrey Smith has so much class and is a great person so I hope he can get pass the passing of his brother.#RIP Tevin.

[Tank 92]

Sympathies and prayers go out to Torrey and his family.

[/quote]what I meant was it, with the grammar I knew it was Jason la c or adam s or someone reliable saying he was playing. The quote looked like it was someone with inside knowledge knew he was playing, but the grammar made it look like it wasn't a reliable source. It had nothing to do with your grammar.

[Moderator 3]

Let's skip the critique of posts and stick to the subject, please. I don't think this is the thread for beating up on each other's posts.

Oh ok! The ESPN Reporter on ESPN Sunday NFL Countdown just sad that he talks to someone from the organisation and they don`t know if he will play!

[/quote]he will prob make his mind up a few hours before just after he's spent a few hours at home

[ravensdfan]

Wow. Deepest sympathies to Torrey and his family.

Whatever he decides about playing or not tonight, behind his decision 100%.

[IceDevilHH81]

I am sure he will make the best deccision for himself and his family and everyone of us will suport him! And if he misses the game Thompson, Williams or Doss will step-up and have a big game for him!

[RavensAllTheWay]

Horrible news. I'm praying for Torrey and his family.

[Ngata Chance]

My deepest sympathy and condolences to Torrey and his family.

[frezeal33]

I've been following this for about an hour, and I just can't believe it. I didn't know Tevin, obviously, but when you're a Ravens fan, it kinda feels like everyone on the team is in your family, and that you know them personally. I just hate this for Torrey and his family. It's awful.

If he doesn't play tonight, then I'll understand 100%. He needs to take care of his family, and I hope the Ravens get it done for Torrey and his family tonight.

[BigMike]

Prayers and thoughts go to the Smith family.

[jdynamite]

It's always rough to lose a family member.. Prayers go out to Torrey's family and friends they need to stick together and be strong for one another.. I've seen people react positively and negatively to family death.....

[Token]

My condolences, it's never a good day when a family member passes..

[Moderator 2]

Poor kids, my heart goes out to his family.

[Moderator 3]

Aren't Torrey and LaQuan close? This could have a devastating impact on both of them.
