Father-son, coach-player bond strong between Ricky and Austin Proehl

One of the greatest moments of Ricky Proehl’s life is captured in an incredible photograph. Proehl's 3-year-old son, Austin, is perched atop his shoulders as he celebrates a Super Bowl victory with the St. Louis Rams on Jan. 30, 2000. Ricky said that image has been on his mind a lot lately. When your son gets to follow in your footsteps, it’s hard not to reflect. (Buffalo News)
