That Benji Wilson Story on ESPN

[Urbanmiracle]

I just seen it. My impressions on it is that it's tragic what happen. His baby mother probably feels guilty to this day. It's just fate. I mean it was just a perfect storm that cause this event. It's a sad story. It's crazy. That shyt that makes me sick is all the people who used his tragedy as a political show off. Jesse wack ass Jackson. Then all his old homeboys all wishing he was alive just to ride his coat tails. I pray for his soul to rest in peace.

his boys at the end was like "if Benji was here can you imagine the different experiences we could've had cause he said he was gon take us with him " i'm watchin that like really son your boy is dead and thats what you can think of.

I dunno the story is sad but it didn't make me as emotional as I thought it would maybe because I've been seeing a lot of docs about death or maybe because I kinda believe the shooter

Word the shooter was like real genuine about what happened. And he didnt even have to say his peace. I mean, he doesnt even seem like the thug type. He just carried the hammer because he thought he had to get his cousin 10 bucks back. Im glad he got a second chance and turn his life around back into a model citizen. If there is any type of silver lining, its that I suppose.

And yea his boys thinking more about all good times they could have had instead of their mans who didnt even live long enough to be an adult.

Its crazy all this happen with young people. 15-17 yr olds. Guns, babies and death. Sad yo.

the 1980s are so interesting to me. Watching this and the Len Bias story..so much stuff happened before we were born.

I dont get the comments about Benji's friends saying they can only imagine what their future experiences could have been. Reason being is that it was just one comment selected by the film's editors. They could have said a bunch of other things in that setting that didnt make the cut.

I wouldnt look at them as ungrateful snakes off that.

"I took my shot of Henny, it hit me in the chest like when Omar shot Benji"



Ironically Omar wasn't even the one that pulled the trigger, but I guess the streets thought it was him...
