I have never understood this. I know a lot of people worship these kids (it happens with Tennessee, too...e.g. Eric Berry), but for a grown man to actually drool over a 20 year old guy like a schoolgirl drooling over Channing Tatum is just plain weird. I don't care which team you are "pulling" for.
Hey! You play football for my favorite team...and you're really, really good! Could I invite you to my house so you can sleep with my wife and daughter? I'll watch and maybe you could impregnate one of them and I could raise your child!
