Recovery, if there is any, appears to be something deserved only by the victims of a man whose belief in his innocence will apparently be, like the way he once pursued his dream of playing in…

The elbow grazed him at best (though kudos on the fine flop). This, plus your amazement over Joe Johnson “obliterating” that big guy’s ankles (he stepped on his foot)... I’m thinking you might be due for an eye exam, brother.

“...who duffed a kick that would have allowed the Vikings to beat the Seahawks...”
