I love it.
Where was his father?apartment building in Brooklyn that burned down when he was 5 all the way to the Super Bowl in Miami.
The moment he charged out of that burning building -- along with his mother, Rosa; older brother, Terrence; and younger sister, Tiffany -- he began a life on the run.

Where was his father?
Also, Donald had a bad childhood, but he hasn't acted like this once he became an adult.
Still a bit concerned by Hargrove's background as he's had trouble as an adult.... maybe he's totally over it. But guys like that (Koren Robinson) often can't ever shake it.
Still, I love seeing any guys like this added as our front 7 was handicapped last year with just 2 players and 5 slugs.
This offseason has been a very pleasant surprise so far, and it tells me that TT is willing to break with previous practices of staying away from FA when he realizes that he has to.
This is especially important because all the the signs are pointing to Nick Collins not coming back. That means we have two very big holes to fill in the draft, a) a big-time pass rusher, b) a safety.
The possibility of the Packers trading up to get an elite pass rushing prospect like Fletcher Cox is in the rumor mill, or trying to get the #1 safety in the draft, Mark Barron.
WTG TT.
Speaking of Hargrove, I noticed him here. He might have ended Johnny Knox's career (I think that's him #94):

Bears' Knox will open season on PUP list
Strong chance receiver, recovering from spinal fusion surgery, won't play in 2012
Knox, a former fifth-round pick, is entering the final year of his rookie deal and has a base salary of $1.26 million in 2012. The one-time Pro Bowl pick was offered a four-year contract worth $4 million per season prior to the injury but did not accept the offer.

It feels like we're adopting a little bit of the Patriots' free agency model.
It never has been done...just Hargrove tweeting, McCarthy saying that the met, and TT saying that he won't comment about anything. It's how things roll every time.
We're gonna have to pay the man, but I am not worried or even concerned. I could be wrong, but I think the parties are a lot closer than what people think. It would not surprise me in the least to learn that Loomis is just buying some time while he works out other contracts.
From reports that I have heard Drew is actively playing the role of team leader among the players while all the bounty crap is going down.
You caught me. My intent was to say that I liked the notion of trying to sign Hargrove. The fact still remains that he hasn't been signed.Posted by El Guapo: "No matter what, I like the Hargrove signing".
I hope we sign Hargrove but with time going on I have my doubts. The fact is to date the Packers have only signed Saturday during this free agent period unless one includes Muir.You caught me.
