This guy played for four years...and was damn good...

he left the team to support his country in response to 9/11...with sights on returning to the NFL after his tour was over...of course...many thought that would never happen...he liked being a Ranger far to much...

Again...to him...and to all that give their lives for this country...

here's to you...

the guy gave up a 4 million dollar deal to serve his country...then died doing it...

Wow, anyone who hears this story and doesn't have some kind of emotion evoked isn't human. To hear something like this makes me humbled and almost embarrassed, because I know I couldn't have done what he did.
