R.I.P to Philip Hughes, it was a tragedy.
But honestly now every person under the sun has come out to claim it has "hit them like a sledgehammer".
British sport sections are pretty much completely taken up by his death. People do die, this is not a phenomenon. There is such a slim chance of death in cricket yes, but how is this story bigger than Tom Maynards?. It has had more coverage than Owen Williams' spinal injury aswell.
And the this story:
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-11-28/b ... er/5924112 has literally had zero news coverage.
A lot of people use death for personal gain.
Why have our to cardiff city put a cricket bat at their news conference?.
