With it being Jimmy V week and just watching his speech.

I was wondering if anybody knew where I could find Walter Payton's press conference when he found out he had that rare liver disease?

No, but bump - hopefully someone points you to it.

Long live the memory of Walter...

I found it in a youtube clip.

about 30 seconds in.

Greatest human to ever step on a football field. He was a pretty good RB as well.

Great posting!

Not afraid to say that I shed a few tears the day he died.

ETA: He would have been a great candidate to head the NFLPA.

My son was born this year, July 4th in fact. There was always only one person he was going to be named after. The wife vetoed Walter so he is Payton.

In my mind the greatest football player ever.

There are not enough superlatives in the English language for WP. He was just outstanding both on and off the field.

Well said, in the age of Diva's, it is excellent to see the best of the best humble..as alwaysWow.

Best football player ever. Some of the selfish, prima-donna pricks like TO and Favre could learn a few lessons from him.

Will never forget the day I went to Soldier Field after he passed away. And then the Bears went to Lambeau the next week and won with the blocked FG at the end of the game.

RIP Sweetness.....you will forever be missed!!!
