Look, I can write headlines like the liberal media too!!!!! Seriously, Tony Gonzalez preformed the Heimlich Manuever on a chocking man and dislodged the food that was caught in his throat, saving the mans life....theres an early leader for NFL Man of the Year 2008..... TE is hero
I am a big fan of stories like this, which are about the players and what they do off the field or court. Tight ends are rather big fellows, and football players in general do 'roids and lift lots of weights. The article talks about how big and strong he is... The diner is lucky he didn't suffer broken ribs

Also, wasn't there a story a while back about a player who made a reception near the sidelines and absolutely laid into a nearby photographer who had to be stretchered off in an ambulance, only to find that he had a brain tumor when he got to the hospital? Basically that guy would have died from the brain tumor if he didn't get drilled. I think that was Gonzalez too.

The Raider fan learned to chew properly after watching a huge choke job against the Buccaneers in the Superbowl a few years ago.
