Quote:This whole thing is him breaking a barrier which on its own is fine but then don't say you want it "all about football"


Say what you mean, mean what you say.

 

I said similar in a thread about Manziel. How much of his or any players life should be about football?

 

He is going to practice for a few hours, watch film for a few hours, lift weights for a few hours. Football players, especially non-QBs have free time, probably more than you or I.

 

Some of them have families and kids, some of them have businesses, some of them appear in terrible commercials, some of them go drink driving and some go round making as many strippers in as many different states as possible pregnant. None of these activities help with being a pro football player some of them are probably pretty harmful, getting up 5 times a night for a screaming baby for one.

 

Being 'all about football' does not mean shunning life.
