PLANO, Texas (Dec. 23) - Having grown up in Dallas, Everson Walls thought he knew his way around town. Then he started playing for the Cowboys and a third-year running back who grew up in Virginia showed him how it was really done.
Ron Springs taught the rookie cornerback where to go for free this and discount that. In return, Walls did the driving and, better yet, introduced Springs to a terrific, cheap late-night food joint - his mom's kitchen.
Kindred spirits only a few years apart, they quickly built a friendship that went way beyond being teammates. It was so much like big brother and little brother that Springs became a regular at Walls family gatherings.
That's close, right? Well they're about to get a lot closer: Walls has agreed to donate a kidney to help Springs, a diabetic, regain the quality of life he's lacked for nearly three years.
The disease already has forced the amputation of his right foot and the big and middle toes on his left foot. His rotting kidney has knotted his hands, bound him to a wheelchair and forced him to get up at 5 a.m. three times a week to endure several hours of dialysis treatments.
