    Who are the down to earth players on this current team?

    I don't live in Tennessee, and when I go to the games, I usually hop right into my car after the game and head back to Atlanta.

    So I was just wondering what players are cool enough to just chit chat with and sign autographs for the fans.

    I know back in the days when I was 18 or 19 I would wait after the games to get a autograph along with other fans and I found that McNair, Jevon Kearse, Robaire Smith, and Derrick Mason use to go head over hills to sign autographs and chat with the fans. Now, Albert Haynesworth was another story :evil:

    VY was really cool. After training camp a few years ago, when he wasn't even scheduled to sign, he stayed after and signed our stuff.

    I'm not a huge fan of his anymore, but he cares about the fans.

    Sarge was really nice to my girlfriend and Willie Hayes was cool when I asked him for a picture that took a while to get right, Jared Cook was quiet but probably just balancing out my over-enthusiasm and uncontrolled explosion of Titan pride.

    Nicest Titan/Ex-Titan I've met was believe it or not Pacman Jones.. Didn't carry himself like anything other than a regular dude.. Chris Brown as well. Both were in a setting well away from football and both could have easily just walked away.

    Hall...that guy knows what real sacrifice and commitment to a cause means from his military days...and did it for love of country not for love of money.

    VY and others could take some hard lessons from that man....because he is the biggest MAN on that team....and gets my full respect for how he plays and keeps his mouth shut.

    Oops :duckrun: I mean Hall


    For real, I have never met any Titan players. I have only met a handful of "celebs". Not to sound like a pompus (butt) but meeting famous people does not really appeal to me. I can see why it does though so don't take it the wrong way.

    I made the trip to the Broncos game and as you can imagine after that painful loss no one would sign anything. But Mariani and Finnegan happily signed and spoke to fans. Awesome experience. In the past as well WyCheck was always cool as well as Nedney, Hopkins, D-Mase, Eddie and McNair.

    Not living in Tennessee I don't get the opportunity to go to games much less meet anyone on the team. The only Titan I've ever met or got to know on any level was Eddie... but that's because he's from here. he was one of the most approachable, down to earth athlete/person I've ever met.
