Well produced video. Nice of them to do that. A Nissan Rogue though? Guess they don't watch Scotty to know how bad Nissan's transmissions are. Lol
I thought the same thing and hope they got her the extended warranty. ;)

On a serious note, what a great thing to do for someone. I was super impressed with Gallup, it's gonna be a shame if we lose him. Also nice to see the rook some are worried about hanging out with the right kind of guys. And if that is Dak's foundation, kudos to him as well. Very nice feel-good story.

Who is Miranda by the way?

From the youtube comments:
"Our Calling leads people who are experiencing homelessness to live a healthy and sustainable lifestyle. Miranda has graduated from a one-year program; she is now off the streets and is living in a home. She is healthy, has a full-time job, and has been reunited with her daughter. Miranda comes to Our Calling once a month to share her story of hope to encourage other women to achieve their full potential."

Even though they are teammates - it's sort of a diverse trio of Cowboys getting together to present this gift: Prescott, the established franchise face & star; Gallup, a player entering the final season of his contract (sign him to an extension please); and Joseph, a rookie, who immediately joins in to be a benefactor in a cause.
Kudos for collaborating to present Miranda with a very nice vehicle.

Good story. Love that our boys took the time to do this. They didn’t have to. But they did. The car fits her lifestyle.. those saying why she didn’t get a high end car. Have you ever seen the maintenance on one of those. Just a oil change Alone.

How many millions are the three of them worth? A Nissan Rogue was the best they could do?

Why does Miranda get a car?

It seems as though the rewarding was more important than what she did to get the car. She do something special? They alluded to her doing something special. Would be nice to know.

But this dealership and these football players sure are nice for giving out awards. I definitely feel inspired by these guys being front and center to reward a lady for doing some type of thing.

Your snark is noted.

Cool! But pretty sure the car was given to the organization by Nissan as a publicity advertisement and these guys didn't pay out of pocket for the car. They were just representing the organization in giving her the car.

I bought a 1973 Pinto wagon for 100 Dollars drove it for over 350,000 miles that is as close as I have ever been to getting a free car. And the best car I have ever owned
We had the Woody version of that with a hopped up engine, cool little number.

My mom had a white one growing up and my brother and I took hell from it from
our friends every day. They even made an ode’ to an Easy E song “Crusin down the street in my Pinto” Thanks for the reminder lol.

So, have you asked yourselves "how did Joseph get in on that"? Guy is a rookie and he's in a video with two of the more popular and stand up guys? I thought he had character issues?

I am probably reading more into it than there is but it makes me feel really good that Prescott and Gallup would get him involved with that because I'd bet people are confused about him right now. Playing that "wait, I heard" game. What they did is not lost on their teammates and that elusive and mysterious "chemistry" can come together fast when things like that happen.

It is rather interesting that our focus is more on Kelvin Joseph than what we know now that was going on at LSU at that time.
