I couldn't say no, ... I'm hurting right now. I'm about to go get some ice, but I'm gonna still celebrate the win. I'm glad to get that win out of the way. |
All of my friends play football and I've known Brad since we were in second grade. I'm always down at his house. He knows I'm going to be open, and he trusts me to catch the ball. He's not worried that I'm going to drop the ball when I get hit. |

I've been wanting this game for a long time. The older I got, the more I became an LSU fan. |
