Floyd Little
Reported this AM that this Hall of Famer with the Denver Broncos has been diagnosed with cancer. What a running back.

Hopefully he can overcome it as this is a hard time with the hospital's to treat patients that have other conditions other than COVID-19
Stay Strong Denver Broncos and Floyd Little!

The new approaches to cancer with immune therapy gives much more hope to treatment

Remember him as a power-back in a small frame. Playing in the old AFL he didn't get the recognition he deserved.

That actually isn't true at all. A lot of hospitals are struggling because of lack of patients.

Came out of Syracuse. Either right before or right after him another big time RB came out of Syracuse also. Off the top of my head can't remember who it was though.

When they played together at Syracuse, Floyd Little was the primary running back, Larry Csonka was the blocking back.

CJ, you are precisely correct.
It appears (here in Reno) that only critical needs are being addressed in hospitals.
A friend of mine who has been in a non-induced coma since Jan. 14, recently had a pacemaker put in and had a piece of skull replaced. (That piece of skull was removed when they did the original surgery back in December.)
Out-patient surgery centers were closed, but seeing a physician has never been easier.
During one stretch of 5 days, I actually saw my doctor 3 times. the 2nd of those visits was via Zoom. During the live visits, I was told that the entire practice was seeing roughly 12-15 patients per day; down significantly from the pre-Covid average of 95.
