and the culture of football later this hour. social media needs to be discussed here. we ll talk to veteran sportscaster jim gray and a also have a panel on this coming up. bill: the most telling interview in all of this is what happened on espn on october 2nd of 2012. you listen to that interview. it is absolutely riveting to hear him describe his girlfriend and explain their relationship and the hours every night, night after night, that he spent with her on the other end of the telephone. how does all this work out? how does he explain it? martha: you know, they would breathe together basically throughout the night and helped her to come out of her coma. it is, i feel sad for him because obviously, you know, he was in deep into this story and, you know the question is, with so much success why? bill: one more note on this. the athletic director of notre dame had a press
