JL,
You should be the real man and give Ryan Dungy a personal apology for all the trash talk and bs you gave him last season. I know it’s racing and a free country and blah, blah. But, that being said, it does not make such behavior appropriate or acceptable. What did he ever do to you but give you a run for your money.
I know this is my personal opinion and you certainly have yours, but it just seems like this could be an opportunity to set things right and show some adult behavior to everyone.
Your fans you speak of, I am one. You are still the king of the inside line. You have proven this over and over.
Get things cleaned up. Find God. Believe me there is power in Him. Come back so we can see you run inside again.

I MISS SEEING YOU ON THE LINE!!!
