Don't know how many of you are familiar with his story, but Tillman was killed in action today while serving in Afghanistan. He played in the NFL with the Arizona Cardinals and walked away from a lucrative contract offer from the St. Louis Rams to serve his country. He and his brother joined the same unit; no word on what happened to his brother.

There are stories on both cnn.com and espn.com about him and background on his decision.

ETA: I just realized there was a thread about this previously started in the Entertainment forum.
