Ashandarei 0 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 The only time you hear about this is when ESPN needs a video for Gameday. I wish stories of good things would be put out more... Ali! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwagoner 214 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 This is a great story. I love seeing these guys who are admired my children, and even by some grown men, use that admiration for the greater good. "They'd say, 'Don't call Ali. Please don't call Ali.' It was like I was calling a daddy,' " Miller said. That line says a lot. Obviously, the kids are learning respect and not wanting to dissappoint those who's opinions are important.

AUBURNJAC 53 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Yep, this is a great story! I wish more football players around the country would read this story (I hope ESPN does run it) and take note. I used to be a teacher in metro Nashville, and I can tell you that a HUGE portion of kids have no role models, fathers, and some nothing but a 30 year old crack pot grandmother. Very very sad, and not to mention these kids grow up and have never been taught "good things". My hats off to Ali! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
