Yeah, he's a blowhard, but this is worth sharing:

Also unearthed this nugget while out in farm country: New England tackle Matt Light is evidently the year-'round Santa Claus of his old high school, Greenville High, in nearby Greenville, Ohio. Equipment and uniforms and shoes sometimes just show up there, and everyone asks, "Where'd this come from?'' But they figure it out pretty easily.

"Yeah, hi, I got a delivery of four tackling dummies. Where do you want me to put 'em?"

"We didn't order any tackling dummies. . . ."

Good for him.
 
Light seems like a good guy. Not too eager to grow up -- but he does play a GAME for a living, so even that isn't really a black mark.

I'm not too eager to grow up either. Matt Light for President - styrofoam peanuts in the Senator's sauna! :woohoo:

I am a senior citizen plus 12 years. I don't intend to ever grow

up. I will attend Patriots' games so long as I am able to walk from

the parking lot to my seat.
 
It's great to hear stories like this about the Patriot players. This is the type of character that explains why the team character is overall so good. Yes...there are slipups and always will be, but by and large, the Pats team is all about good character.
 
LOL. I'm in many ways a big kid at age 49 myself.
 
Growing up is lame anyways. Go Matt.
 
What i like about the Patriots is so much Philanthropy they do!! Im in a fraternity and that is big news to me. Great job Matt!!
 
Heh,

My wife refers to me as her oldest child... :singing:

I am going to grow old, not up.
