Flip Saunders 20 Yards From Minneapolis Bridge Collapse
As many amazing and tragic stories continue to surface following the horrific I-35W bridge collapse, one has hit home to the sports world. Flip Saunders, former Timberwolves coach, barely avoided the scene.

"I usually take the 35W bridge, but the ramp was closed," Saunders said Thursday from Minneapolis in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. "My daughter was driving in a car right behind me when the bridge collapsed -- about 20 yards away from us. It sounded like a bomb when it dropped.


"I got out of my car and the first thing I heard was the kids screaming on the bus. I called 911. I didn't really know what else I could do."
