[NewsBot]

Last Friday Lawrence began his NFL career when the Dallas Cowboys, his favorite team as a child, traded up 13 spots to draft him 34th overall in the NFL draft.

Hey, fellas -- players aren't robots but human beings just like yourselves. They actually have lives outside of football that require due consideration. Let's keep this thing in proper perspective here. Football isn't the ONLY thing in life that bears attention! Freakin nuts.
