Finally we hear about the good guys- the men in the NFL who don’t beat their wives or leave their children. They are the Ben Watsons, David Tyrees and Lavar Arringtons who are really good dads. And it’s high time that America sees how these men live. So thank you Pantene for giving air time to the few who represent many more men in the NFL who can teach our boys how to live better lives.
Yup- and it’s Time to Pay Attention

I have had the privilege of working with many men in the NFL and I have been wonderfully surprised. Several years ago I was invited to work with players who wanted help with their parenting. I said “no thank you” at first because I, like many in America understood the majority of men to be, well, let’s just say, not really into parenting. But I was wrong. Here is what I have learned from many of them.
David Tyree (who caught the head ball in Superbowl 42 to capture the win for the Giants against the Patriots) and his wife homeschool their four children. He now works with the Giants to mentor men on the team. LaVar Arrington takes his family on the road whenever he can and Ben Watson was so sad leaving his girls before training that he posted the above photo saying how much he was going to miss them. These are really good men and great dads.
