I'm a real sucker for a story where the kid overcomes huge hurdles to make good on their potential...kinda like me.
Thanks for the great story.

What a great story. Can you imagine being the defensive end that Big Mike tried to put back on the bus. LOL.

Wow, what a story. So sad to think that there are kids out there who live similarly or worse that Big Mike used to.

At the risk of sounding maudlin, that was one of the most inspiring and heart-wrenching stories I have read in a long while.

There's many stories like that in the NFL draft every year, beleive it or not.......

I hope and pray that the NFL takes good care of him. So many times it doesn't work out well.

As long as he has a good agent and hangs around with the right guys in the lockerroom, he should be fine........

Great story. Talk about being in the right place at the right time. This story could have (and has) turned out much differently for many. All the stars were aligned.
