Really awesome video put out by NFL on how it all started.

I love how schools put together "for your consideration" films for their holders.
 

Awesome, thanks for sharing.
 






Laughed so hard. Then Casey, and cried a little.

Highschool players are going to start putting out Hudl videos promoting their holding skills for recruiters!

Good one. Right up there with the line he gave to his now bride, "4th Down Quarterback".

Earlier segment on the same episode, apologies to Blair Walsh on the Wide Left at the Bank against Seattle. Bad hold, laces BACK.
 


That completely made my day on a tough day. Very well done!
 







Tough day?
2/13 is always going to be a shit day. Personally, nuff said.

This was a great story and honestly the Casey O'Brien story will just never ever get old. It highlights everything that's great about college sports.

Got it. Whatever it is, best wishes.

Yes much love to Casey and the entire O'Brien family. Tip of the cap to the Mortells as well.
