Happy Birthday To The Greatest: Jim Brown
February 17, 2011
Jim Brown is one of my heroes & easily one of the greatest NFL players of all time. I don’t just admire Jim Brown because of his physical prowess as an athlete back in his playing days, but also how he carries himself as a man & what he stood for. Many black athletes today can learn many lessons from Jim Brown & if they had the opportunity I’d encourage them to seek his counsel. Pay attention to his interview & check out more videos after the jump….
