Either way, RGIII certainly hasn't shown much aversion to taking hits during games. I disagree with the criticism; seems like a great young man. You can tell he was brought up right, despite the goofy dreadlocks and the socks.  I also disagree with the criticism of Watt: if you follow half the NFL's players on twitter, you're going to read candid statements that rub you the wrong way. (Not sure why anyone follows these guys on twitter or facebook by the way.) Apparently, he said or did something to make you think he's a jerk, which goes to show how subjective and irrational human opinion formation tends to be. For the record, Watt is an outstanding member of the community: he does a lot for school kids, for soldiers and he launched a charity before his second year. Houston fans love him for more than what he does on the field. He's a <a href="http://blog.chron.com/ultimatetexans/2012/10/the-life-and-times-of-j-j-watt/" target="_blank">Wisconsin kid</a> (there's some Texans propaganda for your consideration) and if he wore green and gold, you wouldn't hesitate to call him a "Packer person."</blockquote>
