Patsies Respect

I read this article this morning over Strawberry Cheerios in the Globe. I thought it showed how even older athletes garner respect for each other through sport.

"I think the first and most obvious choice is evident when you look at Jerod,’’ said Bruschi. “He’s in the middle of the defense. He’s sort of establishing himself as a leader on the defense because it is his second year now and he’s made that progression into really being a good player. He’s one that is absolutely ready for that. Defensively, I think a lot of guys are ready here. I’m really fired up about a lot of things that Jerod is going to do.’’

Mayo has soaked up all he can from Bruschi, attaching himself to the veteran’s hip from the moment he arrived in Foxborough. Mayo has spoken often of his admiration for Bruschi and the feeling is mutual."
