Deion Puts An End To The Henry Blackburn/Travis Hunter Controversy With An All-Time Classy Response
I know, you're probably thinking "Not another Deion blog!" Unfortunately, we're in the pageviews business here and this is as pot of gold as it gets.

But that's what makes Deion the GOAT. He's boisterous sure, but push comes to shove, he's thoughtful and honest. A real leader in every sense of the word.

Going public with this and offering support for an opposing player who did something dumb is pure class in every sense of the word. That's my coach!
