Re: Lamar - man of the people
Lamar is sending a greater message without knowingly doing it, something the news media should show instead of the hate and violence and divisiveness now being driven purposely, and not for Mr. Floyd anymore.
I saw white and black people working together and having fun for a common goal. I saw white teenagers, both male and female experiencing something that most teens dream about. I saw a young black athlete not caring whether those kids were white, black, brown or Martian green.
All I saw was love and respect on that video.
Play that CNN and MSNBC

Re: Lamar - man of the people
Lamar is a fixture now. I can't think of any player, regardless of position, I'd rather have on the Ravens.
Coming out of college I knew he'd be a good QB if he worked on his feet, and he has. Now he's the league MVP, only the second unanimous selection, and takes selfies with a bunch of kids after playing football in the park. Lamar is just a good guy. People who think athletes should be held up as paragons of virtue annoy me. However, I have pointed out Jackson on the sideline dealing with teammates and in interviews with reporters to my son to provide a good example."A moron, a rapist, and a Pittsburgh Steeler walk into a bar. He sits down and says, “Hi I’m Ben may I have a drink please?”

Re: Lamar - man of the people
It’s mostly the age. Think back to that first season with flacco and the playoffs. He looked to be having a lot of fun also.
The sad thing about this video that no one mentioned. Palm trees. That means they had to leave the state to do this. Because we are still not allowed in Maryland.

Yeah, I think the mountain came to Mohammad in this situation. The workout happened in Florida because that's where the QB's at.
As a side note, I'm not sure I know of anything forbidding Marylanders from tossing around a football in an open space. We've tossed around a frisbee with out neighbors in the cul-de-sac, once or twice.
(Then made our son wash his hands after )
