But I've only 120 seconds to do all that, because if I don't get out of there, then three other people...
...Krumrie--a Bengal lineman--broke his legin three places in the Super Bowl," Williamscontinued. "Whereas some people yell 'doctor' whenthey get the smallest cramp in their leg, Krumriedidn't make a sound. He just looked at me, flat onhis back, and said 'Don't give...
