He's always overcoming something that is peripheral to the actual game. I'm sorry for his pain, but the media's bizarre treatment of him is just... bizarre.

I agree 110%. Does anyone else besides me think that
THIS is what Limbaugh was mentioning when he made his "racially insensitive" comments?
He's great for the game, plays the game for the right reasons, and is a team player in every sense of the word, but if only ESPN and similar outlets would stop acting like he's a sure fire hall-of-famer, I'd be satisfied.
