Thought about you today... 2021 NFL Draft. Loved bantering with you about our Cowboys-Giants Division rivalry. 10 year anniversary of the NATC-A 9 was this week. Definitely made me cherish our friendship even more. I think of you every day when I put on my uniform, or see my son as he was born merely months after your untimely death. I miss you tons, SMFW.
