      If he didn't say that, he would've start crying. It's obvious with the immediate pause and look away Isaiah that it got to him.

    Ngl this was hard to listen to cuz it was so impactful to him, and this was just heartbreaking. What made me smile with tears was in the end when he said, “We gonna be alright”.
    Wow.

    This dude was a big motivation to me in everything I do. I was a big fan of his game and was messed up when he was diagnosed not even knowing what Marfan's was. Come to 2017 and I was diagnosed with it too all because I made a joking comment about my skin stretching and my joints to my doctor which lead to my diagnosis. They need to do a better job at catching symptoms early

    Sad how he got right to the door & it slammed on him. Who dropped the ball on catching this sooner though? Glad he still doing well & in good health
    People consoling him before even telling him what was wrong was sad.

    Growing up in Arlington and watching him play was so tough seeing this happen to him. This literally wrecked our community. Everyone knew him and Eman were certified lottery picks. It was so sad to see his dreams get snatched away like that.

      Marian syndrome is fatal when it comes to the heart. So physical activity is risky. Those teams were probably willing to take the risk
