Re: Coach Budenholzer’s brother died during Heat Bucks series Originally Posted by 8Ball There is no way I am doing any work for anybody if my brother passes away suddenly.Out of respect for my bro.

Just because you couldn't deal with it doesn't mean that the next man can't compartmentalize. I know from personal experience from when my oldest brother died, I and all of my siblings still did our jobs. There is no disrespect for him among any of us, we just have jobs to do and we did them. I don't judge anyone that needs time off in such a circumstance negatively but you should understand that everyone doesn't need time off. People die but life still continues and if you have a job to do and you feel like you can do it then there's no reason not to.
