Archie is a great guy, very genuine, and one of the nicest people you will ever meet if you ever get to meet him. I was lucky enough to meet him once while in Destin Florida on the beach when I recognized him walking down the beach having a discussion with the owner of Cash's bar if anyone is familiar with Cash's.

Any time Drew talks about New Orleans a city you can tell that without a doubt he is 100% genuine. He got choked up for a minute there when Letterman talked about what he meant to the city. Drew is something special, even more so as a person than a football player.
