Another Reason to Like Devin Hester

Yes, he plays for the Chicago Bears.  And, yes, he went to college at Miami.  And, it’s true that he is likely to be a nightmare for the Packers for years to come.  But Devin Hester is awesome.  I’m a lot more likely to watch a game when he’s playing and I get pissed when teams (wisely) punt away from him.

Now, he’s trying to get a new contract.  He says it’s been a slow process but he is nonetheless in camp because he an an obligation to be there.

“It’s tough, but I did sign a contract, so I’m obligated to come out here,” he said. “I’d be reneging if I didn’t show up, but at the same time it’s very frustrating. I do want to get paid. But I’m not going to sit here and complain about not getting paid enough. I’m going to come out here and play ball.”
