Re: Congratulations 28! Nobody deserves it more!
To be fair there are a lot of fans and while the majority may be respectful some don't understand boundaries and I can see how that would make them cautious of any fan, especially when they are out and about with their family.

Re: Congratulations 28! Nobody deserves it more!
Love DG but yeah I’ve heard he’s got a healthy ego, most big time athletes do.
He does a good job of coming off very likable in public… it’s possible to be both personable while also having a giant ego |

Re: Congratulations 28! Nobody deserves it more!
DG made a strange comment on the draft stage last night — “I’m back!”, which no one in that circus atmosphere knew what he was talking about. “Well, not as a player, but on the sidelines.”
We all get this, but an oddly self-centered thing to say in that context. Riggins and Green my favorites from yesteryear. Long-live the undersized corner lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Re: Congratulations 28! Nobody deserves it more!
Who knows what he meant, either way it was a bit of that giant ego shining through IMO
Still love DG though |

Congratulations 28! Nobody deserves it more!
He said Im back! On the sidelines.
Was just being funny like hey i can still play! From the sidelines! Didn’t take it as self centered. Just being silly. |

Re: Congratulations 28! Nobody deserves it more!
The only time I ever "spoke" with DG was at two (free) autograph signings. He was polite but businesss like with everyone. I thanked him and he said, "No problem". His wife was in my high school class, but name-dropping would have been tacky to say the least.
I went to a free signing with Art Monk at some mall years ago. I figured he would be the same as DG considering his reputation for shyness. Not quite. While he was far from jolly like Theismann or Dexter, he was all smiles and looked to be enjoying himself. And he even laughed at a joke I cracked. I know, hardly high level encounters. But it's all I got. Congrats DG! |

Re: Congratulations 28! Nobody deserves it more!
Congrats to a legend! Wish I could have seen him play live. Everyone raved about his tenure, speed, and extraordinary work ethic. Great seeing this.
