"Thanks for your prayers and support. We don't know anything about him. Still waiting..."

The silence is beginning to really bother me
I keep coming back and checking in. Every time I do I’m hopeful that I’ll see something good. Still staying hopeful. I can only imagine what his family is going through right now.
I've been sitting around nervously typing away...
I have three articles done that just don’t feel appropriate to post, just want to hear that Ramos is okay before moving back to discussing prospects, plans for 2012. Hopefully they hear something soon…

I dont know, Patrick.
Maybe a few more opportunities to urge the Nats to sign Fielder or whatnot might be healthy.
Or maybe not.

had a long day lighting the "Cake Boss".............not being a TV watcher, had no idea what TV food shows has devolved into....
or why they have cliched, star personalities…or why this is what my work has become…
Nevertheless, really hoped to be reading release reports by now……

I can't believe they haven't heard anything, though the possibility they've heard and aren't reporting remains a possibility...

I think in all probability, negotiations are happening. I just hope these guys aren't rank amateurs...

First mention I've seen on ESPN
…lasted all of twenty seconds. I suppose I’m grateful. Now back to regularly scheduled coverage of Joe Paterno.
Seriously, I am becoming a lot more emotional about this tonight than I was last night. Hopeful yet thoroughly depressed.

I finally saw a pretty full report on ESPN out here late tonight...
nothing new to add, but at least, they covered all that seems to be known so far.
I hit a really bad point when I read about the plans for a candlelight vigil on Friday night at Nats Park. I’m getting more and more worried the longer it goes with no word.
Please let him be safe and unharmed…and free soon.
"player development" should not be gladiator games. by cat daddy3000 on Aug 6, 2011
I'm seeing reports more on mainstream media.
There are so few updates, so all the reports are the same.
I believe/hope
the “we have had no contact” line is a standard operating procedure kind of tactic. If the authorities are under the impression he’s still alive, then some sort of ‘communication’ would’ve had to be made, right? The Nationals were instructed to make no further comment, and the family says they’ve had no communiction. They could all be just trying to comply with demands of the criminals.
I dont think I can go
I wish I could
Liberen a Wilson!
