But I can't. Because from all outward appearances, it appears that Mr. Allen has his demons under control at this point in time. I'm hoping it stays that way and I hope that at least some of these rookies will actually listen to what he's got to say from his personal experiences. Unfortunately, as we all know, a lot of these kids eventually will eventually end up with "turd watch" points, which will be a real shame.

Not necessarily of his past, but of what he has learned, and more importantly the knowledge he is willing to pass along. I can only imagine the pressures professional athletes are under, and though I don't agree with their decisions when it comes to off field conduct (in a growing number of NFL players)I can see where it would be easy to slip up. I am glad that the NFL has decided to publicize the GOOD things that players are trying to do. Even if it is as a result of past behavior. Lets face it, we are all human, and thus capable of error. But it is refreshing to know we can better ourselves, and other through our past mistakes. Good Luck Mr. Allen and GO VIKINGS!!!!! I think it speaks highly of Mr. Allen.

I bet he gives a pretty entertaining speech at the symposium. Jared Allen is a funny dude. I bet he gives a pretty entertaining speech at the symposium.

In the past three consecutive weeks, he has been the subject of a featured article in ESPN The Magazine, then Sporting News, and then Sports Illustrated. With all this pressure on him, being the "missing piece" of a Super Bowl run, I hope he doesn't cave in. I'm not a Vikings fan (even though I live in "Viking Country"), but here's hoping that he can put aside his personal demons and perform well.
