It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I get the impression Long and I are at opposite ends of the political spectrum. But I always respected that he was willing to put his money where his mouth was, rather than just paying lip service to a cause like so many others appeared to do.
Edit: I see Kontradiction and a half dozen others already said this.
Thats good so long as you are actually wishing him good luck. I don't anymore try and define people by their politics but by their deeds. So long as people are genuine I can't and dont have any business criticizing them for them giving to people less fortunate just because of their political leanings. Those who give for the sake of giving are the kind of people we need more of.Good luck Communist.

He made some really clutch plays for us.
The holding penalty he drew in SB51 was probably the most important play of the entire game, from a win percentage standpoint. It went from a 52-yard makeable, fate sealing field goal attempt to out of field goal range.
The three plays in succession: Flowers sack, Long holding for -10, and the incompletion defended by Butler, I’m guessing that increased the win probability at least 35%.
Actually the nicest way you could pay tribute is to just say nothing.It was the nicest way that I could pay tribute.
did he play more in Philly?Lol we have the most thin skinned fan base out there. People don’t like him because he left to find more playing time? Long was a solid rotational player for us. Not a superstar by any means but he would get some pressure here and there. He couldn’t have been anymore gracious in his exit.
Pro football reference says he played around 15% less snaps from 2016 to 207.did he play more in Philly?
Actually woulda been a 44 yarder, sanu was pushed oob on our 26 on the play the holding occured, but that only reinforces your point!
Long also caused the sack fumble to ice the jets game in ny, and i am pretty sure hes the one who drew the hold week 1 in az to help push them back at the end and make the fg harder. So thats at least 3 endings he played a major role in.

I think Mama and Poppa Triumph skipped over that childhood lesson.
Even Thumper learned it and he's a GD cartoon rabbit.
