Pat Bickle has become a well-known name around Kansas City, with good reason. On Saturday night, September 29, Pat, who was playing defensive linebacker in a game against Oak Park, was seriously injured in an attempt to tackle an opposing player. He suffered a broken neck and spinal cord injuries that left him paralyzed from the neck down. Shortly after the accident, Pat underwent surgery. The doctors gave him a 20% chance of recovery. By Tuesday of that week, they were giving him one chance in a hundred of walking again. It seemed that, once the news was out, all Kansas City wanted to get involved. Over $50,000.00 was collected for Pat, highlighted by the Pat Bickle Benefit Double-Header at Arrowhead. Finally, arrangements were made for taking Pat to the Craig Rehabilitation Center in Denver, where it is the job of their staff to “help people regain the use of their bodies, if possible, or to help them learn how to function as whole people in spite of a physical disability, if necessary.” According to the papers, Pat knows a patient who was, at one time, in the same condition as himself. But one day, a foot moved and then something else and now he’s walking. Pat is optimistic about his own recovery. He has a great attitude and a lot of faith. Because of that, we have an obligation to always have faith in him. On that Saturday night, before anyone knew what the extremities of Pat’s injury were, the spectators at that football game were waiting for the moment relatively familiar to football fans ... the moment when a player walks off the field to rest or have an ankle taped before returning to the game. That moment didn’t come for Pat But who of us is capable of saying that Pat’s moment will never come? Who of us is justified in saying that Pat will never walk again? Those decisions and performances do not lie in human hands. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and in honor of his faith and courage, we dedicate this Yellowjacket '74 to Pat Bickle. dedication two
