    People try to cover their sensitivity with an air of "level headed rightness". Rationalizing so they don't have to feel.

    But I don't think he was being that insensitive. There's considerably more health risks with being that size, just hard to wait a full 24 hours to say what everyone's thinking anyway.

    I don't see how that comment was insensitive. It's just a statistical likelihood that this man had a long list of chronic medical problems.

    What is sad is that even though he is twice the size laterally as Hill, he still looked more nimble on his feet. As far as skills, court vision, and intelligence, there is no comparison at all.
