I also always pulled for Slauson after reading a story about him during his last year with NYJ. He, his wife, and his kid(s) were living out of a Motel 6 (or some such place). He was in the last year of his deal, knew NYJ weren't going to re-sign him, didn't want a bunch of $$ tied up in a house he'd have to sell (probably during the recession) when he moved to a new team. Then he came here, but still only got a 1-year deal. Probably the same living situation. I was happy when he finally got a decent, long-term (4-year) contact. It was nice that he and his family got some security.
Of course he's made more by the age of 30 than I'd make in 5 lifetimes. But I always rooted for him.
