My only complaint is that this isn't being put on the official NFL channel. Everyone should see this story.

NFL Films and NFL Network/ESPN are very different. Not sure how long they will stay that way now that the Sabol's are gone but I think the family still controls the company (not sure).

He also helped save the world from Aliens in that movie Battleship. Dude is such a badass, I knew he was an actual combat amputee in the movie but I didn't know he was this type of guy. As a combat veteran as well guys like this are needed more then ever. I bet no matter the time or day hes answering his phone to make sure his guys are good. Keep motivating the world brother.

This is coming from a diehard Patriots fan. After watching this I'm okay will allow it all ended up. If my favorite team has to lose, I'm glad it's the Giants and not the freegan Cowboys!

He probably wont talk about it but one of my mom's co workers rescued him from a kayaking accident on Ft Belvoir near the outdoor rec area. He flipped over and couldn't turn himself back around. With quick thinking the co worker was already a good swimmer went out to save him from drowning just in time. If she wasnt watching him, that would have been it. He told her to keep it on the hush hush and didnt want negative media to make a story about it because it'll take away from his achievements of being a war hero. I mean going out by a kayak failure could detract from his reputation.
