I was at the game, and the halftime presentation didn't interfere with my beer runs, so I saw the whole thing. Now I'm not a Stamps fan, but I joined in the standing ovations we gave him. On the field he was one of the best players I've ever seen play.

However there were people who were saying things like "I'm never buying Dewalt tools ever again." (After they presented him with $5000 worth of tools.)

I'm glad they retired his number. And he seemed choked up when they gave him his new truck. A classy move by the Stamps to honour somebody who made this team great in the 90's.
