Anyone who has heard the story of Steve Gleason knows the incredible fighter that he is as he continues to live his life despite being diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).

I can't tell you how many people I've seen doused with Ice water in the ALS bucket challenge.  And, I think for the most part, my Facebook friends (more than half of whom I've never met) get what this is about. But I have to say, in some of these videos, it's been more "hey look at me while I get a bucket of water on my head" than it is about ALS awareness and, most importantly, donating

Former New Orleans Saints player Steve Gleason, the face of ALS to a lot of people, has taken the 'Ice Bucket Challenge'!

Steve Gleason is faced with a disease called ALS that takes a piece of his life, day by day, until there is nothing left. Too bad for ALS though, because Steve Gleason hasn't let the disease stop him from living life to the fullest one bit.

A new Microsoft ad, set to air during this year's Super Bowl, praises technology and of it's ability to empower. The commercial is narrated by, and stars former New Orleans Saint player Steve Gleason.

The Saints are notorious for playing bad under extremely cold weather conditions. We really could use all the luck we can get for this playoff game in Philly. It starts Saturday at 7:30pm.

Steve Gleason made national headlines yesterday for two reasons. One, he wrote a 4,500 word column for Sports Illustrated, detailing his battle with ALS. And two, because three Atlanta radio hosts made a segment belittling and mocking Gleason, as well as his incurable disease. The latter moved the needle more than the former, but Gleason has responded to the incident, in the only way you'd expect him to...with class.

The trio of radio hosts behind the 'Mayhem in the AM' bit that mocked Steve Gleason and his battle with ALS, has been fired. Atlanta's 790 'The Zone' released a statement earlier apologizing for the tasteless "joke" their AM crew aired mocking Gleason, and his condition, due to the life-threatening disease.

A sports radio station in Atlanta aired a three minute segment this morning, pretending to talk to former New Orleans Saints safety Steve Gleason. Gleason suffers from ALS, and communicates by using a computer. The morning show recorded a segment speaking to a computer, claiming it was Gleason. Allegedly, one line used in the disgraceful bit was of "Gleason" saying, "I might be dead by Thursday." This is disgusting.

Former New Orleans Saint Steve Gleason was in attendance at tonight's Monday Night Game in the Superdome and in the 1st Quarter, he became unresponsive and was taken to Oschner Hospital. Throughout the ESPN broadcast, the network told the story of Gleason and his battle with Lou Gehrig's Disease.

Yesterday, before the biggest NFL game of the year was played; before the commercials and the middle-finger halftime controversy, NBC aired a story during pre-game that told the tale of Steve Gleason. Gleason, to most Who Dats, is most famous for being "the guy who blocked that punt when the Dome opened after Katrina." Lately, Steve has been making headlines for a whole different reason.

Reggie Bush has been on a roll lately, but off the field he is still struggling with the world of social media. In a tweet that had the best intentions Reggie Bush wished his former New Orleans Saints teammate Steve Gleason a "speedy recovery" for his illness. The only problem is that Steve Gleason is suffering from ALS - an disease that has no cure.
