šŸˆ Henry's sportsmanship

Great read...

Football can heal a lot of wounds. It can be a salve for the soul.

I lived through a tornado in Tuscaloosa, Ala., on April 27, 2011, part of the second-worst tornadic outbreak in the history of the United States. Alabama long snapper Carson Tinker had his girlfriend, Ashley Harrison, ripped from his arms as they hunkered down while taking shelter from the storm. She lost her life that day, as did many others in Tuscaloosa and all across the south. But in the aftermath, I watched the Alabama Crimson Tide football team rally its community and go on to win a national championship.

That’s why as sad as I was about about the atrocities in Paris on Friday, I knew I had to go to Starkville, Miss., on Saturday and be with other people that were frightened but unified. We needed something to believe in, something to get lost in, something and someone to cheer for...

He is a class act.
Welcome aboard, but you may not be able to see or hear me without your head.

That is one of the best articles I have ever read. It made me tear up, and believe me I hardly ever do. He is a class act and our team is a class act. I was at the game but left in the 4th quarter. I noticed their fans many times just said congratulations to me as we left the game. We do need to keep beating them but they are like a little brother.
