The Wolfpack-centric, NFL story of the day was almost the San Diego Chargers’ amazing comeback led by Philip Rivers. Instead, we’ve got Brett Favre to J-CO.
Jerricho Cotchery
Praise for Mario, J-Co
We have recently run some nice entries on Mario Williams. On Christmas Day, the Houston Chronicle‘s John McClain added to Mario’s praise with an article that (gasp!) focused on facts and statistics to support his point.
