What if?

I'm really not trying to be cold, it's just that sometimes crappy things happen and you need to do what needs to be done.  In this case finish the game.  Regular people keep working through awful situations every single day.

What does "highly paid, elite pro athletes" have to do with going back and playing a game where they just watched a teammate nearly lose his life on the field?  What part about sucking up comes into play in that situation?  Are you saying sucking up means you have no empathy because it surely doesn't have anything to do with handling physical pain?

And it's not true that regular people keep working through awful situations every day.  This isn't the 1950's-60's where the workplace was ruled with an iron fist.  I'm not sure many places would expect a close co-worker to just go back to work if they watched their friend hit the ground in front of them.
