I’m not much of a football fan and I have to admit I didn’t know who Thomas Rawls was a few minutes ago. However, I ran across this story while checking my fantasy hockey score and I have to admit, it brought a tear to my eyes.
“Seattle Seahawks running back Thomas Rawls may be out for the year with a broken ankle, but that doesn’t mean he’s not still making things happen. On Christmas morning, a young fan named Sophie Ayers received a Rawls jersey under her tree and had the following reaction”
Here’s a link to the story.
Sophie’s reaction is one of the things I love about Christmas.
From now on, when I do happen to watch football, I’ll be pulling for Thomas Rawls.
Good on you Thomas!

Interesting. I believe this is the same Thomas Rawls who grew up in Flint. He played at U of M and then transferred to CMU. I think he does have some criminal activity in his remote past, but nice story nonetheless.
