Syracuse, N.Y. -- Tim Green is ready to tell the world what only his family and closest friends have known for a while.
He has been living with ALS.
A local icon, the former Syracuse University football All-American, NFL player and commentator whose life's work stretched far beyond the football field will appear on CBS' 60 Minutes on Sunday, confirming his battle with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, commonly referred to as Lou Gehrig's disease.
Green revealed the news in a Facebook post Tuesday night.
It's okay when life's a struggle...
While the football field is far away, I find myself in a formidable struggle.
