Romeo Doubs is taking these playoffs by storm. We sit down with the wide receiver who escaped South Central Los Angeles. He's unlike anyone else at his position.
I don't have the time today to read this but ita on deck. Im glad i found this substack; BEFORE the McDermott 9/11 thing. Yesterday I curiously went digging for the old aaron rodgers original expose of many years back; players who didn't like him, since it made me learn who he really was before he went full blown anti vax diva. The author who was pilloried by rodgers and packers nation? Tyler Dunne.
Yeah, most fans dont want to hear anything that isn't hagiography of their coaches and players. You could probably do an Eagles or Cowboys expose on the unpopular coaches and get lauded!
Tyler... this is a great stuff. I coach baseball. If it’s okay, I’d like to share some of this with the guys. Awesome stuff.
Young men underestimate the grind. NO ONE wants to get up and put in the work, right away. I have a kid, he is grumpy at the start of every workout. But when the work is done... he’s on cloud nine. This is the lesson guys need to learn. And that Doubs had so much “quit” surrounding him, and didn’t. Awesome. You and also tell he’s a really sharp young man. Love this!
Wow! I believe that this is the best writing that you've done. Both Part I and II. I was initially wondering why it wasn't just a single article. But the depth... what a "slight" difference from the Sammy Watson article. He was way out there.
What this guy has had to go through. I'm wondering what Bob's opinion of this player is.

Great to have you here! And thank you for the kind words.
The aftermath of both stories is eerily similar in many ways, eh?

Gotta get me a #87 jersey.

Great write up! I remember Bob McGinn talking about the Doub’s draft analysis on a previous podcast. Love the added context.
Tyler, was so excited to see the emails about Romeo’s story. Started reading as soon as I got home!!!
