O.J. LewisNFL without Brian Westbrook! Boring

There are hundreds of people I have respected, because of their athletic prowess. I have cheered for many athletes who have come back from injury plagued predicaments. I have even prematurely celebrated the domination of an athlete, before I even saw them perform on the field. Brian Westbrook is one dude I constantly feel the need to cheer for, regardless of what the haters may be sayin'! He is 5'10, weighing only 203 lbs, B-Dub is ridiculously fast and as strong as teen with a steroid addiction. He is the real deal. Being drafted in the 3rd round round out of Villanova, he proved that he would be more of a success than so called 'analysts' said he would. Sure I have made my predictions which have turned out - VERY WRONG! None have been as wrong as those that were made about B-Dub in 2002.
He holds the all-time NCAA record with 9,512 all-purpose yards, breaking the 9,301 yards accumulated by Brian Shay of Emporia State University. In 46 career games, he scored 542 points with 84 touchdowns, carried the ball 725 times for 4,298 yards (6.2 avg.), caught 219 passes for 2,582 yards (11.79 avg.) and gained 2,289 yards and four touchdowns on kickoff returns. Along the way, he established 41 school, 13 Atlantic Ten Conference and five NCAA records. Westbrook became the only player in I-AA history to score 160 or more points twice in a career and the first player in the history of college football at any level with 1,000 rushing and 1,000 receiving yards in one season (1998). He is one of only two players in Villanova history to rush for over 1,000 yards in a season and he accomplished that feat three times.
Westbrook was a consensus All-America and two-time A-10 offensive player of the year and was the 2001 recipient of the Walter Payton Award (as the top player in NCAA Division I-AA).[1] As a senior, he amassed 2,823 combined net yards and scored 29 touchdowns.
That was just in College. Once he was drafted Brian worked his butt off to produce big numbers, regardless of his continuous battle with injuries (since college. Since his career began, Brian Westbrook had become one of the biggest threats on the feild. Brian Westbrook is as dangerous as a bride on he hen's night. He amassed 5,995 rushing yards and 3,790 receiving yard and 29 TDS! Not many have been as inspirational and not many could say they did their best. Well Brian what you proved to us, is that all Athletes need to be given a chance; regardless of injuries, issues and social situations. No one truly can predict how successful some may be over others. All drafts have proven this to us. B-Dub, thank you! Please don't EVER retire!
That's right people! I Kill it!
