Folks, how hard can it be to believe that David Garrard has a well-balanced life, an awareness that he's set financially, and will have no regrets whatsoever if he never plays another down in the NFL? Face it. We live vicariously though these guys, and just assume that anyone would have to be out of his mind to give up the limelight and the bucks--just because that's not something we would do voluntarily. We're certainly not alone, as that attitude is shared by probably the majority of NFL players. As an East Carolina graduate, I've followed David Garrard since he was in high school. I've witnessed his football successes and failures, as well as his personal tribulations. It's against that backdrop that I have full confidence he'll live comfortably with whatever happens. Don't worry--I'm pretty sure he doesn't care what anyone out here thinks about him one way or the other.
