Years i lived in Atlanta always Falcon fans. Also followed Florida team for friends there. I had the opportunity to meet the players at one special game and the one thing I learned was the best player who spent time with fans, had photographers take pictures of us with him and bunch of other players but he organized the meet and greets. Absolutely NO ego trip ever evident. I followed his career ever since. He does NOT come across as arrogant in person he respects fans more than other players do. One different opinion for you to consider.
