good chance that you have never spent any time in the Aldine and Greenspoint (AKA Gunspoint) areas of Houston that Thomas grew up in some of the roughest areas you can imagine

I did not know that. I only spent a few weeks in Houston in the Sugarland area visiting some wealthy relatives there.

BTW, did you all know DT is first cousins to your Russell Shepard? Explains why they look pretty much alike and all. I read somewhere they have each been having fun with the banter back and forth.

And btw, I am not knocking DT for being poor. I actually say this out of me feeling bad for the kid. I would give him a car of mine(as I have a few I dont drive much) to use or own, but that is against the NCAA and don't want to get us in trouble in that department. Of all the kids I really hope does well it is DT. He really has earned it. Plus I hope he can do well enough to get drafted cause I know he and his family can really use the money. I feel for the kid and his family big time!!!
