They always put these on when holiday games are played. Getting people all choked right before a football game not right. Great stories but I am ready for some football. JB even had a hard time continuing. Hell of good story for organ donors. Definitely makes you think.

It was a good story indeed. Serves the dual purpose of putting football in perspective on Thanksgiving and will serve to recruit more organ donors.

Great story. Teared up myself.

I thought almost everyone was an organ donor now though. Why the hell wouldn't you?

Thanks for the link. Great stuff. Tragic that he passed, but turned it into a blessing for others.

I turned the channel as soon as it came on, there's nothing special about this story, it happens everyday, all over the world.  Just because he was a loser of a football player doesnt make it a wonderful story.

And I will never be an organ donor.  I don't want a part of my body in someone else's body.  I want it in the ground, rotting and being worm food.

If you need a transplant somewhere down the road hopefully you won't get one.

Wow! That might be the most selfish thing I have ever read. To be here, you had to have a Mom.  The fact that you can't empathize with this woman is sad indeed.
