september 11

Wow. You've gotta see these pictures as a double rainbow appeared over New York City early Monday evening on the 22nd anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks.

I took my son to the 9/11 exhibit at the NYS Museum and tried my best to explain to him what happened that day. It wasn't easy, but I felt it was necessary.

As the New Yorkers began to gather to commemorate the 21st anniversary of the horrific attacks on the city and the nation, a former Major League Baseball pitcher who became a police officer in New York City, was killed Sunday morning on his way to work. The assignment he was heading towards was the September 11th memorial ceremony in lower Manhattan.

It was a warm fall Tuesday that will be forever burnt into history as one of the darkest days in America. Symbols of hope were turned into symbols of terror. Firefighters, Police Officers, Transit Authority and Civilians were slaughtered unjustly by an evil madman thousands of miles away. That day changed the way I see the world; that day changed America.

The NFL has a few plans to salute America during the first full Sunday of the regular season.
