I doubt he reads this, but I just wanted to say in the case that he does that my hat, heart, and respect go out to Terry Glenn.
I obviously knew who the player was (Ohio State, Parcells, "She"), but did not know much about him before he came here. But after having watched him these past few years I have nothing but admiration for his game, his character, and his work ethic. I can see why an old hard-*** like Parcells liked him.
He is a much better WR than I ever knew, and watching him was a pleasure. I've never seen a runner like him at that position, he looked more like a dancer going through his routes than a racehorse, just very nimble of foot and fast.
I bring this up because I heard on local radio that after the game he was just sitting on the bench, his head down, obviously taking in what had happened and one of his teammates came over to console him. And as he was walking off the field, you could see the emotions running through his face, he kneeled down, and ripped up (or at) some of that fake grass turf and walked off.
Given his knee, his rehab, and his future well-being; this could have been his last game. A terrible way to go out for a player who has earned his stripes in my mind as a true Dallas Cowboy. I'm sure a lot of people agree with that, just wanted to give some props to a guy who gave it his all, and did it with his play instead of his fat mouth (eh emm #84)
