You may recall a disturbing story from early this year about former Steelers linebacker Greg Lloyd. His son, Greg Lloyd Jr., is a linebacker at UConn. And the Hartford Courant reported that Greg Jr. wanted nothing to do with his father. Many blogs reported on the estranged Lloyds, including Can't Stop the Bleeding. And something rather extraordinary seems to have happened in the comments to that Can't Stop the Bleeding post: The Lloyds may have re-connected. Someone claiming to be Greg Lloyd Sr. left a comment saying he loves his son and wishes him well, and someone claiming to be Greg Lloyd Jr. left a comment indicating that he would be willing to get in touch.
These are blog comments after all, so it's possible that both are bogus. But Can't Stop the Bleeding seems to think they're legit, and if they're fake they're awfully believable. So, who knows? Maybe the Lloyds can put their troubled past behind them, all thanks to a sports blog.
