Absolutely. I was quite furious when I read the first reactions, and lack thereof, of his teammates and the Raiders organization. However, in the case of the family, my read is that they are currently focused on stablilizing him and keeping the media at bay, which if that is indeed the case, I can sympathize with that. I certainly support them in not disclosing the location of the hospital.
I do worry, however, that the reason the Raiders kept this hush-hush initially, (finally, last night the coach said the right things) is indeed because of the stigma, and that is very sad.
