Football Players Are Dumb?
Yeah, I played some football when I was a kid and really enjoyed it… linebacker, mostly. As I tell my kids, I loved the feeling of gliding over the bodies, moving down the line and BAM!!!, hitting the runner as he emerges from the backfield. Or, hitting that tight end on a slant in… BAM!!! FUMBLE!!!
Anyways, I’ve never been much of a football fan… way more fun to play than to watch. I also remember people saying that football players are dumb, but that was never my experience. I had fellow players go to West Point, become nurse practitioners and surgeons, head of the psychiatry department at a major university and one I know even went on to become a Postmaster!!! Yeah, that’s right… a Postmaster!
Well, here’s a video that demonstrates that football players have a lot more going for them upstairs than most people think. If I could find more examples of this sort of post-game coverage, I could be enticed to watch a little pro football.

It was sent to me by a budding philosopher… I thought it was perfect.
