Hochman: Thinking of Stedman Bailey, and his namesake

Sixteen days ago, Stedman Bailey tweeted Jeremiah 29:11.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

It's all just so sad. The waiting. The praying. The hoping. The how.

It's currently Wednesday morning, the day before Thanksgiving. The most-recent news was an overnight statement from the Rams, sharing two startling developments: that the wide receiver is “critical, but stable, condition” in Miami.
