It was a very nice read. He posted it on his facebook page, and as I mentioned there one line struck me very distinctly:
Upon seeing the vision of those hands
Quote:
...if I shut off the adrenaline pump, got lazy and slid into the comfort of the rental car and closed my eyes and surrendered...
It is a great reminder that we need to be vigilant against laziness.

The only thing that I found odd was Joe's incorrect statement that Bob Hayes was the only olympic gold/superbowl ring winner. Willie Gault is another person to achieve both feats.
