Ha! nice one branded...

Wonder what happened for Mick's brother to go all Psychosocial and try to Snuff him out. The knives seem like a pretty lazy choice. Why not Scissors or a Butcher's Hook?

That's sad when two brothers resort to this type of violence against each other. We should NOT be making light of this situation. I'm mean, the whole thing I think it's sick!

@4 and 5

I see what you did there.

I guess the lesson here is that no one is safe. I wonder if Mick's brother tried to **** the wound and push his face in to feel the swoon.

This could go on forever.

I just hope he will be okay and that this won't affect his playing and longterm health. Mentally and physically.
