When I was in Junior High, I used to roughouse with a friend of the family and this other kid, Bobby Nimmo. Well, turns out his 'little' brother became a 6'5, 303 lbs OT, is a standout at WVU, and is drafted in the mid-rounds by the Bucs. He gets a few hundred thousand signing bonus, and a tidy little salary.

Talked to my father today, and he talked to the Nimmo family at the Farm show (folks bought a steer). Turns out Lance took his entire signing bonus and GAVE it to his parents to pay off the family farm. Then, when they went to sell their prize hog, he tells one of his relatives or friends (dad was vague on that) to bid as high as they need, because he'll cover it and give it back to the family.

In this day of big-money, big-mouthed, greedy players, it is SO nice to hear of a true-blue American boy doing the right thing. Not bad that he's a local boy too!

Stout,

I hate that big friggin picture

I asked someone on another thread, but they didn't answer: Is there a way to put the picture in the signature without giving a direct link to the internet site? That's the only way I could figure out how to do it. I love the picture, but of course I don't WANT it that big!

It's so refreshing to see a story like this. Chicken soup for the soul kinda thing.

I know how to re-size it, but how do you attach it? I'm not bad with computers, but programming/html/etc, even simple stuff, eludes me easily!
