Yes he is. I never had much use for Tatum. It wasn't the hit, but he never went and visited Stingley or said anything until years later. Stingley was going to meet him until he found out Tatum only wanted to have a photo op for one of his books.

Tatum ended up having his right leg amputated and all of the toes on his left leg.

"It could have happened to anybody," said Tatum. "People are always saying, 'He didn't apologize.' I don't think I did anything wrong that I need to apologize for. It was a clean hit."

Frankly...it was a clean hit. And he didn't do anything wrong. That said...he could have visited with Stingley. Although I will say.....we don't know that he wasn't horribly haunted by that event. Hard to know what people are thinking......

FWIW
