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.
