Nice picture.

Good to see Tony smiling. He's displayed symptoms (anger, short/long-term memory loss) of CTE for years now.

All of those concussions .

My problem is you making statements like…

“ I have faith you'll figure it out eventually.”

and

“Who said he wasn’t?”

Then shaking your damn head when others respond in kind. You act like you aren’t part of the instigation. You use inflammatory rhetoric as much as I do.

Re: Rickey Jackson Graduates

Rickey's accomplishment is special. He's my age. I covered covered NC State's game against Pitt in the Tangerine bowl back in 1978 when I worked for the paper. He must have been injured or something that year because he has no stats. I remember it so well because all the photographers and writers from NCSU went to Disney World (perhaps a little under the influence) and we kicked their butts in the game.

There is no quit in that man . Way to finish what you started. He is truly inspirational. You go Rickey!

“I was so close to it that it made no sense to not get it,” he said, describing his return to finish his degree.
