Seriously tho, how many athletes have fricked up parents of some kind? I think this is incredibly common .


A ton. But how many of them openly talked about their dad beating them with a belt in high school for throwing a pick? How many times have they done a national interview when they’re about to be a professional athlete and be as timid as they come talking about he didn’t know how he ended up at a school? It’s all very Michael Jackson-esque. I hope that kid gets the away from his pops and flourishes in the NFL. He seems like a good dude.

I know right, it's terrible when kids and teens listen to their parents. Someone needs to step in before they ruin their lives.

Yeah, I can't even imagine how much shite NFL and college staffs deal with from the egos of (some) players and their parents.

Will be interesting to see how much access Galu, Tua's dad, has to him in the NFL. He's obviously been pretty involved with every aspect of his life for years.
