College Football Ping.
Freepmail me to be added to this list.
Mark Dodge is a great addition to the Fightin' Texas Aggies. His maturity and leadership is much needed in the locker room. The rest of the team really looks up to him.
Two friends of mine (both on Texas Task Force 1, a quick response group of Texas firefighters that go to disaster sites) pulled duty at the World Trade Center. One of them developed pneumonia related to the dust he inhaled. Doctors told him it would never go away, and he would probably develop cancer within five years. The other has started having balance problems related to some kind of inner ear problem, with no conclusion that I'm aware of that it was related to the WTC. He's been on disability and run out most of his sick leave.

For two of the nicest Aggies I know.....
At 20, we all take a lot for granted.
My father can relate to Mark Dodge. He, like many other soldiers, at 18 landed on Omaha Beach on D-Day and later was in the Battle of The Bulge. Those experiences and Mark Dodge's tend to put things in perspective. Playing football before thousands of people is gravy after what he experienced.
