Have a lot of respect for him. I remember hearing that story a few years ago. Crazy. Watson also seems like a great guy as well. They choke every year but I do believe that have SB talent. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopkins definitely seems like a good dude on and off the field. He's been one of my favorite players since entering the league especially since he doesn't have a huge ego like many of these elite players nowadays.

TheBrownBear Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 When you read that story and learn of the environment he grew up in, it really makes you appreciate all that he's overcome to get to this point. It takes a very strong person not to allow themselves to become a product of their environment in that situation. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inthebuff Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I live in the area -- 20 or so miles away -- Coach Swinney seems to recruit very nice young men for his teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a lot of respect for him. Girlfriend? Quote Seventeen years. That's how long it has been since she lost her vision when a woman she didn't know threw acid at her face, blinding and disfiguring her in a bout of jealous rage. Tragic story.

Punching Bag Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 The "girlfriend" was another girlfriend of her boyfriend who borrowed her car and she was attacked when she went to get it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
