Not in agreement the guy is a coward or is not a coward! Made some kind of decision that public opinion is not on his side with! BayBad said it best when thinking bout this guy down the road the first thought that came to mind was Steve Bartman!
If you see some of the current players statements they all appear to like and respect M McQ! Maybe Joe Pa didn't save some young children from pain but maybe he can help out M McQ live his rest of his life without being hated and say what a good person he is as a whole!
Joe Pa, the guy has been with you a long time! You do respect the guy and trust him as someone to do the right thing! Help him and take the sword! You lived a good life that is almost complete, don't let him feel more pain from outside than he already probably feels within!
