GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Just about everyone in Mason Crosby’s family was there Sunday at AT&T Stadium. His parents, his sister, two nephews and a niece. Everyone watched -- and celebrated -- as he kicked two field goals in the final 93 seconds to send the Green Bay Packers to this weekend’s NFC Championship Game.
Everyone except his brother, Rees, and sister-in-law, Brittany.
Rees and his wife were back in the Crosby clan's hometown of Georgetown, Texas, where Brittany just started chemotherapy treatments for ovarian cancer. At age 27, she was diagnosed less than a month ago.
