Zins30 Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Interesting. From a selfish Bengals fan standpoint we couldn't keep him o the PS anyway so no big loss. From his standpoint, I wonder why he's retiring? I assume he could have gotten a minimum gig somewhere.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his dad is in politics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texbengal Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 seems destined for politics or tv. He's incredibly smart and well spoken. I think his dad is in politics. His Dad works for the Dallas Cowboys - in sales and marketing. I guess that's kinda like politics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know when he was coming out everyone said he had a future in politics, I thought I remembered hearing their was a family connection there as well. here were some pre-draft comments You were a 4.0 student in college and finalist for the Rhodes Scholar award. How do you plan to use those connections you built? I kinda thought about potentially doing politics maybe. I’ve thought about potentially doing entrepreneurial activities. At the same time, I mean, broadcasting and being around sports is something that I’ve always cared about. I don’t care what it may be, I just want to be involved in sports. I want to be around sports. I genuinely cherish football, baseball, basketball -- I love them all. As long as I’m involved in sports in one way or another, then I can be happy at the end of the day. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/04/28/2011-nfl-draft-greg-mcelroy_n_854910.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
