If I were getting hit 20-30 times per game, I might feel qualified to question another player's fortitude; however, I don't think I would question one from long distance.

Sorry folks. You make some good points; however, stem cell transplants for treatment of multiple myeloma is certainly no riskier than the disease. As far as being experimental, what is not experimental for a disease that is said to be incurable. I do agree with UNTFlyer the problem is really not insurance but the cost of medical care. The problem is we have to find some way to pay for the costs until the costs are contained.

Unless you are very rich or have insurance, you are in real trouble today. I just finished having a stem cell transplant evaluation. Fortunately, the tests show I have to be monitored, but, at least, I do not have to have a transplant. I don't know what the total costs will be, but they already well exceed $20,000. On top of that I will have continued monitoring for the rest of my life. How can someone do this without insurance? We have a number of people on staff and in plant who are hard working good people. Our school pays the premium for the employee but not the family. Many of these people cannot afford to pay for their family. What happens if disaster hits them? What as a society do we do? What do the people who time and again say this is a Christian nation do?

Are you sure WW regained his eligibility before he left . According to the article about the game, he sat out a year at NEO. Since he moved from D1 to D2, he would have been able to play immediately if everything else was in order. If he had been eligible, then they must have thought they had a better QB on hand.

For those interested, Woody Wilson started at QB for Northeastern Oklahoma State Riverhawks Thursday night. NEO lost to Arkansas Tech University 44-32. Wilson was 17/33 for 232 yards passing and 93 rushing yards. Tech won lead by QB Nick Graziano transfer from University of Nevada, Reno.
