I thought he was a Raiders fan?

I dunno, the way I see it if you have a son who is drafted by another sports team than your favorite, all bets are off.

 

If my son ended up playing for the Packers, I wouldn't stop being a Bears fan, but I would root for the Packers because of my son... that is one of only a couple of exceptions that make that happen (the other one being if I myself were to be drafted by the Packers)

And I totally forgot about that. So just disregard that post.

You never see fat defensive backs in the NFL. It's not like baseball and basketball where you find fat players at speed positions (SS, CF, PG). I guess that's a product of non-guaranteed contracts.

This is extremely random.

 

Also, there is no such thing as a speed position in baseball.

Center Field, at least at some level?

I suppose you can make an argument, but covering a lot of ground doesn't equal speed. Reading the ball off the bat, getting good jumps, etc. Jerry Owens wasn't a good CF just because he was fast. You don't have to be much of an athlete to be a great baseball player.
