Suddenly, I find that I am a huge Jake Plummer fan.

Suddenly, everything's in italics....

the odd aspect of the Plummer story is that he wants to display the sticker that the NFL authorized players to wear during week 2 (the week the NFL publicly honored Tillman).

why not let the players wear the sticker for the remainder of the year? especially players like Plummer (and Tedy Bruschi of the Pats) who played with Tillman in college. (BTW Plummer played with Tillman in college and in the pros.)

I saw this story last night, on ESPN's MNF pregame show, and the reporter giving the story said that Jake said it was just too hard to take that sticker off his helmet. As small a gesture as it ends up being, it really elevates him above the rest of the NFL, and many of us civilians.
Thank you for helping keep Pat's sacrifice fresh.

Tillman served in my regiment, and I have always been
a Broncos fan. Clearly, Jake Plummer is a quarterback
who gets it.

Sorry, It's been awhile. I forgot to add:
RLTW!

Now I feel like a jackass. This is what happens when
you stay up all night drinking. Please refrain from
associating me with The Regiment. I have only spoken
for myself.

When I heard about the fines I was stunned. What a bunch of crap! If the powers that be over at the NFL are so afraid of alienating football fans, maybe they should rethink the whole cost of tickets to a game. But I digress. I honestly think every player should still be wearing Tillman's number...fine be damned! I never paid much attention to Plummer before, but you better believe I will now.

P.S. Don't you be mocking me with that Miami Vice stuff now! I've been through this with one man already, I don't need another one.

P.P.S. If I play Columbian drug lord hostage, will you play Crockett and come rescue me?

Really cool blog! What you say makes total sense! Keep up the good work.
