    Saw that earlier today. Well written article. He didn't deserve to end his career like that - he deserved to go out competing. Gotta feel for the kid. I realize why Sam and Colt have become friends.

    Great season for you guys and we'll see you in Dallas in October.

    That was awesome. It's nice to see what's going through their heads even in times that tough.

    The article correctly pointed out that Gilbert needs to learn to forget. You could see on his face that every failure was eating at him. He was hanging his head. He just needed to get past it to the next possession and start over.

    Now during the off season is when he needs to remember what it felt like and decide that he never wants to feel like that again.

    I am proud of them both. Colt handled the injury with style, grace and faith. Gilbert went in there and showed us he could fight. I'm a happy fan.
