49ers legend Dwight Clark updates fans on his ALS
« on: October 25, 2017, 01:01:50 am »
Few people in San Francisco lore hold a more exalted position than Dwight Clark, the former 49ers receiver who caught Joe Montana’s game-winning touchdown pass to defeat the Dallas Cowboys in the 1982 NFC championship game. We know it now simply as “The Catch,” and it’s arguably the most famous play in NFL history.

Clark revealed earlier this year that he’s suffering from ALS, a degenerative, terminal disease that attacks the spinal cord and the brain. Tuesday, he spoke to the “Murph & Mac” radio show in San Francisco and gave more details on his condition. And the details are heartbreaking.

Classy guy in the days before the kneeling.  Cruel, cruel disease.

Indeed.

Always a nice guy. Makes you wonder - why him.
