I'll tell you what, I dont know what tv showed, but there was a rather emotional moment yesterday in the Dome. First after the fumble, and everyone was unpiling, we could see a player down. Now my view is from the Terrace. I dont know what you were seeing on tv, or in the lower levels.

I suspected it was Roby, but there was such a crowd around him, it took a minute to confirm. His legs were frightenenly still, stuck in the same position. It gave you a bad feeling, but then I looked over and saw the entire Rams team out on the field taking a knee, and I knew that this was bad. Then you see a guy on the field make a "T" gesture, which I guess is the cart's cue. Of course, we had the long delay, and the crowd was very respectfully quiet.

Well, as they were preparing to lift him, the crowd actually started chanting "Roby Roby Roby," and they made a big cheer for him as he was rolling off. The big screen showed him wiggling his fingers, and the crowd erupted.

Get better fast, Roby. We're all rooting for you.

ditto, i saw exactly the same thing. i was in section 113 behind them funky rams. unfortunately we had a few rams fans being very disrespectful following robys play. boy i wanted to sock him upside his jawbone with my cold nachos. BUT i felt a hell of a lot better when the ball was immediately intercepted on the next play and returned for a touchdown. all i kept repeatedly saying was "that was for roby!"

Coach used to say, "Get up - and walk it off". Let's just hope it's that simple.
