This has been a very successful event. It was great to see so many guys. Some I had not seen in 15-20 years. This is such a great cause because I have friends that are in nursing homes, friends that have committed suicide, all directly caused because of their participation by the NFL. Organizations like the Gridiron Greats are picking up the slack. It has been a great disapointment that the union has not stepped up. When I started playing football we had no unions. We thought we would create an organizaiton that would benefit players after football. With our union leadership this has not happend. We find it necessary to step in and do what we can do to help support the organizaiton and to support the cause so that our fans can have someone they can fall back on and finish their lives with dignity.
