FORT COLLINS, Colo. -- A 4-year-old boy was recovering
Sunday from a deep cut to his head after Colorado State wide
receiver George Hill collided with him during CSU's spring game.
Hill was catching a touchdown pass when his momentum carried him
into Caden Thomas on the sidelines Saturday. Caden was among
several kids playing on the sidelines as part of a kids' festival
at Hughes Stadium, said Caden's father, Mike Thomas. More...
I can't help but wonder what the kid's dad was thinking! Does he understand football is a game of very large people moving at high speed and a white stripe on the grass is not a protective barrier?
These people have been the subject of a great deal of media coverage including a national TV appearance on CBS's The Early Show.
... the phone at the family's Fort Collins home rang. It was CNN Headline News. During the next couple of hours, everyone else called, too, and by lunchtime the Thomases were headed to the airport. More from The Rocky Mountain News ...
Once again, we're going to reward irresponsible behavior with "fifteen minutes of fame".
