| I have just been watching some old footage of George Best on the pitch. Even though having no particular interest in the game I was absoloutely mesmerised watching him literally run rings around the other players.
Many geniuses seem to have serious flaws, as if it is natures way of counterbalancing their gifts.
With George , sadly it was booze that killed him. It was his passion. Should he have been given a new liver?..... Probably not, but that was the decision of his doctors.
Should people who have replacement organs due to a motorcycle crash have their motorcycle licenses revoked?
The ironic part of this is he died the day after extended drinking hours were brought in. I imagine that there will be far more people needing new livers in the future as a result of the new laws.
R.I.P. George. You were obviously '' A bit of a lad '' |
