Detroit Commercial

So yall knew i was gonna talk about this...if you saw the superbowl yesterday and were watching the commercials, you saw the Detroit commercial that Chrysler did featuring Eminem. (if not, you can watch it herehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKL254Y_jtc ) Here are 2 comments that were left under the video that i definitely agree with:

  • People constantly underestimate Detroit. I probably wouldn't realize the amount of hatred towards Detroit if I didn't go to a out-of-state school. This Chrysler commercial gave Detroiters a sense of pride and much deserved acknowledgment. I commend Eminem for representing his city and Chrysler for promoting Detroit.
  • All you haters drive through Detroit its one of the most beautiful cities...
    Corporate and Union greed, ignorant and arrogant folks killed it, but guess what its still there.
    Detroit is what made America great, the golden age...
    Detroit will be back



    And please believe Detroit will be back one day. But i do agree with the commercial as far as the fact that a lot of people are constantly dissing my city and have never even been there. I mean whats all that about? I dont talk bad about places ive never been to...but regardless i will always love Detroit. I remember when i was a little kid i used to always tell my parents that i was gonna get as far away from Detroit as possible, but now that im gone, i get back as often as possible...home is where the heart is lol and i guess once again im eating my words because now i love the city. I guess it took me to got o other places across the country to realize that theres no place like home. I guess we can put this down as a random thought lol...until next time...Peace

Orlando

So i have taken a brief hiatus form the internet (i.e. twitter and facebook) in order to concentrate on training for the NFL combine. Things are going well. Im training with Tom Shaw in Orlando Florida (www.coachtomshaw.com) and am getting better everyday. I have selected an Agent. His name is Sunny Shah and his company is 320 sports. He has had a top 15 tackle in the last 2 drafts and i hope to continue that tradition this year. Ive been here training for the past couple of weeks, i had to miss one week to go to the East West shrine game which i feel that i did great at. But besides that ive pretty much been training and  getting ready for the combine. So this is sort of the blog to just catch you up on everything thats goin on in my life....ill post some other stuff soon about how things are goin and what ive been up to in my spare time and of course the random thought or two that pops up in my head from time to time lol. Ill holla soon...peace
