Listen to an ESPN radio affiliate, it's appearantly breaking.

It's 2:55AM Indiana/Central time

There's no link, as it's on air.

The jist:

Ted Williams' son wants to cryogenically freeze his body to sell his DNA. Ted was against this, and wanted to be creamated. His daughter is trying to stop it. Ted's body has been flown to Ocala (Florida?) with the cryo company.

She says she'll get her dad's body back, no matter what. She's looking into a restraining order.

This is nuts! I'm not making it up either. Someone listen to ESPN Radio, the Sports Doctor program.

Edit 5:10AM

You can email them at jennifer@alcor.org, according to the Doc.

Keep it nice, short, and to the point.

Did the son have "power of attorney" over the father? I think this is just sick. If the guy had wishes they should be met. I can't wait till the daughter kicks his butt in court.
