Agreed. Inspirational all around. I'm buying some merchandise for the family and to help support the cause.

Steve is a courageous individual & it was good to see Scott Fujita in the documentary as well. This really sucks to have such a cruel disease take over your body. The guy give me chills every time I see him and the block punt vs Atlanta post Katrina.

God bless Gleason and his family.

Re: A Football Life (Gleason)

Not gunna lie, in that clip when Steve is talking about his Wife and daughter and where without the aid of his computer asks that girl what her name is, It brought tears to my eyes

I love it how he said, "This will be the last trip of this magnitude until after I'm healed"

That my friends, is a true fighter

Re: A Football Life (Gleason)

A must see for everyone. That Machu Piichu was some tough stuff. I didn't realize the severity of the climb. Crap sakes, impressive. When he met the gal in the restaurant, was the tipping point for me. What an amazing individual, and his support system's simply incredible.
