Coast Guard suspends search for missing NFL players
Coast Guard searching for missing boat with NFL players
Reported by: Chad Cookler Email: [email protected] Last Update: 11:18 am CLEARWATER, FL -- The Coast Guard is searching for a missing fishing boat about 50 miles off-shore in the Gulf of Mexico. According to Coast Guard officials, the 21-foot fishing boat left from a boat ramp in Clearwater Pass Saturday about 6:30 am with 4 people on board. A dispatcher told ABC Action News 3 of them are NFL players. One of the plays for the Detroit Lions, and one plays for the Oakland Raiders, the dispatcher said. The boaters were supposed to return sometime after dark but never did, officials said. A friend called the Coast Guard at about 1:30 am and reported them missing. Officials say the waters in the gulf are extremely choppy and they believe the boat is in distress. Air and marine crews from the Sand Key and Clearwater Coast Guard stations are searching a 750 square mile area west of Clearwater Pass. http://www.abcactionnews.com/news/lo...SanyO4BZA.cspx |

They have been showing video of Nick getting off of the CG helicopter. Wow. Very exciting for the family. He's stood up briefly but looked rather weak.

I wonder how he managed to hang on to the boat but the others didn't.
It makes me think that the others may have gotten to weak to continue holding on and may have died. |

Nick apparently told them they were all together as late as 2:00 am this morning. I don't know if that is good news or not. Per Fox News. If they all had lifejackets then perhaps there is hope.
