>I don't think anyone who got to see the press conference Travis held today >either in its entirety or in pieces could not have been moved by it. Everyday in this country someone is paralyzed. It is sad to see that just because one of them happens do be an athlete, a college one at that, that he recieves national recognition and thus more donor money. The story is sad... but it is now a human issue rather than a hockey issue. There are many many handicapped people who need monitary assistance as much as Travis Roy, but do to his athlete nature and the national attention he is being exposed to his pockets will be jingling. ----------------------------------- KEVIN AMES Email: [log in to unmask] Voice: (612) 767-1006 Fax: (612) 421-2681 Pager: (612) 321-6806 Snail Mail: 13353 Killdeer St Andover, MN 55304 CHECK OUT MY WEB PAGE http://home.earthlink.net/~kames HOCKEY-L is for discussion of college ice hockey; send information to [log in to unmask], The College Hockey Information List.
