For eight hours Tuesday, retired police negotiator Tyrone Lynn and William Sturdivant II played an emotional game of cat and mouse on a radio tower 200 feet in the air, ending with Sturdivant stepping into a cherry picker bucket and asking Lynn to pray with him.

He saved that man's life and ended a 6-day standoff. You know Gabe had to of been raised well :)

I didn't make that connection till today, either.


His son Gabe Lynn plays football for the University of Oklahoma, while another son, Phillip Dillard, plays for the New York Giants. His adopted son, Jarrett Lake, is a member of the University of Arkansas football team.

If I remember, Dillard went to Nebraska, right? And didn't Jarrett Lake sign with OU once up on a time?
