 For real. Reminded me of Marshawn or even more so Bo Jackson.

 They’ve toned down the violent hits a lot lately in order to prevent injuries and brain damage which is good but I do miss the big hits that were way more common back then.

 I havent really watched for years. Got heartbroken when Bo gotten taken out and was never the same for me. But did get into it again a couple years when Marshawn was still playing. He brought back to the good ole days. Part of head injury shit is the odd trend of head down hitting which never made sense to me.

 The NFL has a shitstorm to deal with in the near future. Brett Favre was recently diagnosed with Parkinson’s. It’s gonna get worse for these older retired guys.
