Luvbills Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 on ESPN this morning? She is paralyzed from a fall out of a hammock. He has to sell his house and cannot afford to send his child to USC...very sad story! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeyemike Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 No, but according to the link on TBD this morning, the segment will be repeated during the Sunday PM Sportscenter (I assume the early one -- 6:00 or whenever it airs). It is truly a sad story...go to the link on TBD's front page from yesterday and it will show the Buffalo News article. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corp000085 Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 I saw it. Pretty sad situation. I'd expect ralph to quietly step to the plate in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBud Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 If you can, catch the story about C Dobler on ESPN. Emphasis on story is about his wife, who broke her neck and damaged her spinal cord. Paralyzed from the neck down. This has taken a lot out of Conrad financially, emotionally, etc. Daughter got accepted to USC, but CD can't afford to have her go there (will go to Miami of OH in fall). Med bills are approx $750K to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRH Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 It was an excellent feature. Glad they could show another side of a man of whom my overriding memory is his getting three CONSECUTIVE leg-whipping penalties against the Cowboys. Just one small niggling point -- Miami of Ohio is, I think, a better school than USC (unless his daughter plans to play football, which I doubt).

Arkady Renko Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Just one small niggling point -- Miami of Ohio is, I think, a better school than USC (unless his daughter plans to play football, which I doubt). 342558[/snapback] Better is certainly a matter of opinion. FWIW: USC is ranked 30th in USNWR and Miami of Ohio is ranked 62nd http://www.usnews.com/usnews/edu/college/r...tudoc_brief.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacka Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 I worked at a Denny's in the 70's. In the company newsletter, they had an article on him and Dierdork going into a St. Louis Denny's and ordering one of everything on the menu. Together they ate it all.

jarthur31 Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 I saw that piece and you can see the eternal pain in his eyes. That lady is a very strong person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
