Re: Cowboys Practice Bubble collapses on players, media, fans

So I was in the area all weekend and saw non-stop footage of it and somethings that stuck out to me that you might have missed.

One of the linemen kept hugging a pole like he was scared. It was funny to see because a big lineman was acting like a little girl.

The coach who gashed his leg was more worried about other stuff than getting his leg fixed up first, he was toughing it out

One of the cameramen got a gash on his head and he was still shooting you could see from another person footage the gash on the camerman's head, it was kinda cool how he toughed it out.

Assistant ended up paralyzed from the waist down

Quote:
IRVING, Texas -- A Dallas Cowboys scouting assistant was permanently paralyzed from the waist down after his spine was severed during the collapse of the team's tent-like practice structure in a severe storm.

The team announced Rich Behm was in stable condition at Parkland Hospital on Sunday after surgery to stabilize a fracture to the thoracic spine.

The 33-year-old Behm was among a dozen people hurt in the accident Saturday, and was one of three Cowboys staffers who remained hospitalized.

Joe DeCamillis, 43, the team's special teams coach, sustained a fracture of one of his cervical vertebrae without paralysis. He was in stable condition and scheduled for surgery Monday.

Assistant athletic trainer Greg Gaither, 35, had surgery Saturday night to repair a fracture to the tibia and fibula in his right leg. He is expected to be released from the hospital later this week.

Just horrible news.

33 is too young.

I hope he can lead a productive life and with any luck someday regain some type of feeling in his legs after this unfortunate accident.
