This is a great story.
Everson Walls is donating a kidney to Ron Springs, a former teammate with the Dallas Cowboys.
I've barely heard anything about this, but it should be a much bigger deal. Last night, ESPN aired a year end recap, and they had the T.O. story as the number one story of the year. Number one overhyped story of the year, perhaps. This here is one of the few good stories in sports, and is far more deserving of the attention.
The story is even better than the donation. Ron Springs is the father of Shawn Springs. Shawn actually offered to donate one of his kidneys to his father, even though it would mean the end of his NFL career, but his father would not let him be tested.
Kudos to Everson Walls, Shawn Springs, and everyone else involved.
