He was boasting and waxing about his son and how Reid said he was athletic enough to get some snaps on offense. He was so proud and it was so touching and genuine.
I can't believe not very long after he suffered that fate. But that day he was as proud as any father could be and I've kept that with me ever since.
Good for James.

That’s fantastic. Thanks for sharing. I had forgotten his dad died.
