Hearts out to Chris Spielman

All Lions fans are with you Chris...  Many here have felt your pain and all others will now share yours.  My condolences to the family.

 

Stay tough,

CLF

 

 

 

 

 

ALLEN PARK, MICH. – Stefanie Spielman, the wife of former Lions’ linebacker Chris Spielman, died yesterday (November 19) at her home in Columbus after a 12-year battle with breast cancer. She was 42. The Spielmans have four children – Madison (15), Noah (13), Macy (8) and Audrey (7).

My regards to the Spielman Family

That man has an immeasurable amount of class, and heart.

The loyalty and love he showed his wife through the past 10 years is unimaginable. To have the courage to quit the game he loves to support his wife was such an honorable thing to do.

Can not put into the words the amount of respect I have for him.

Chris is a tough guy, inside and out

My thoughts and prayers go out to him as well. 12 Years is a long time. I am sure they were very trying. Stay strong Chris, for your self, and your children.
You will always be a hall of fame Lion in my book.

One of my favorite players ever...

I unfortunately know all too well what he is going through right now. It pains me to know that anyone has to feel what he is feeling. His family is in my prayers daily.

Best quote from a MLB ever...

Chris, what motivates you every sunday?

‘well, I just imagine that the guy with the ball is coming after my daughter’

+infinity, and the only buck i like....

Chris Spielman with the elongated face mask, the big shoulder pads, and the neck roll epitomizes football in the 1990’s!
