Kelly the Dog Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 So about twenty years ago I was a Big Brother in the Boys and Girls program in Phx for this little black kid, Demetrius, who was six at the time. I did it for six years, took him everywhere. He was awesome. I got him into Little League football and all kinds of other stuff. Then when he was 12 I moved to LA and he moved with his mom back to Virginia and we lost touch for awhile, even though we both looked for each other, but several years because of Facebook, we reunited and we talk all the time. He became quite a good high school football player, and made all league as a senior. So a few days ago he texts me to say hi, and that he is coaching little kids football this summer, and thought of me, which was cool. Then he said "And I know you love the Bills and Tyrod Taylor is helping me out sometimes." And I was like no way! So he sends me...
Kirby Jackson Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 (edited) That's good stuff. They say he's a GREAT guy. On a side note, where have you been?!? We need you around here more. We can use a few more intelligent posts. Edited June 23, 2017 by Kirby Jackson

boyst Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 a story with the title "tyrod" and "little" had to laugh at that but this is pretty cool!
Bills757 Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 But what about his 4th qtr comebacks? This thread is for grown ups....now run along.
LI_Bills Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 I cringed when I saw the thread title, but couldn't help myself and dropped in expecting the worst...sometimes I can't look away from the train wreck. Super cool story. Amazing how small the world can be sometimes.
NewEra Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 Very cool. Thanks for sharing this and thanks for being a big brother. Volunteering your time and energy to help out the youth is priceless and you should be proud.
