Pro Football Player Leaves $37 Million Contract To Be A Farmer

I can dig it.  Do what makes you happy.   If that involves helping others like this young man is doing… all the better.

Well all of that is implied with the name.  Shame Todd isn't here, Blake could have sat 2-3 years behind Toddy B, and had two superbowl rings by the time he took his first start.

Welcome to the club Mr. Brown. We have the same tractor Smile


And how dare that reporter refer to him as a "plain old farmer".
