What? This is sob story central?
Why is it that every black pro-football-wanna-be player has a sad story to tell?
Without a doubt, there is some sorta heartbreak associated with a black player being drafted or trying to make a team.
Geez. It becomes a worn out welcome mat.
Can't you report a story in a positive light instead of constantly reminding readers how so and so and such and such overcame adversity just to land at the footstep of stardom?
As for me, this constant detailing of a player's hardship is worn thin.
Maybe they should try working a demeaning, demoralizing job.
There are plenty of hardworking people who view the NFL as an escape from life's daily travails.
We don't need to gather at the trough to commiserate.
