I'm going to troll a bit here but serious note...would anybody really make such a big deal of Steve Gleason if the guy wasn't terminally ill?

Not a troll IMO, I get what you're saying. But Steve Gleason is responsible for one of the greatest plays in Saints history. He's pretty much a cult hero in our eyes. I think it's a big deal to me because of the fact that you're talking about a guy who, jus a short time ago, was in top shape going around living his life loving retirement. Then all of a sudden this disease completely tears him down. It's just hard to fathom seeing a guy make one the biggest plays in saints history just 6 years ago, in the shape he is. It's pretty sad.

And I think it's awesome that he's still living his life & doing fun things while fighting this disease & not feeling sorry for himself.


I hope that's a good enough explanation.
