Micah Parsons

Pure greatness. Even all of you who go to bed at night and wake up each day hating Dallas and the Cowboys have to admit he's a monster.

1. He does a football camp for kids in Harrisburg each year.

No charge, he foots the bill for everything. Good human (besides being a monster, lol).

2. Monster is one word, though NFL front offices generally prefer the euphemism "character issues"

Here's an article about the "hazing" (aka assault) accusations against him and several teammates:
https://fox56.com/news/local/former-psu-football-player-gives-details-on-alleged-hazing-by-teammates

As one can note, that article is several years old. Since then nobody was ever criminally charged, and a lawsuit only proceeded against the University and the coach. Parsons called the accusations "false" when he was entering the draft. The report detailing an investigation by the university was kept secret by a protective order issued by a judge.

However, Parsons has more recently claimed that he's a different person now and everyone makes mistakes when they are 18 years old -- which doesn't really fit with the previous flat out denials and implies he now recognizes wrongdoing on his part. Or maybe he's just as bad at logic/argumentation as he is good at football.

3. Read the post from Penn above, where Micah is from.

And I would hate to travel back to when I was 18. He may not be a choir boy, but he's special and arguably the best player in the NFL. But, you go strawman and don't address his greatness. However, you're from California, and possibly a 49ers fan, which is typical coming from y'all. Dallas Cowboys' derangement syndrome is a sad disease that infects so many football fans.

4. Peter King compared him to Lawrence Taylor

and King said he got at least 10 messages telling him he's crazy. But he said he watched LT play during four of his prime years and he insists that he sees parallels with Parsons.

5. I think the Cowboys could have beaten the Jets WITH Aaron Rodgers

The Jets OL had zero answers for Parsons and the Cowboys DL.

6. I'll Admit It

Big, fast, strong, smart (at least football wise; don't know enough about to think he's not smart in other ways).
He's all over the field.
Not sure how people wouldn't be impressed.
And his team makes me nauseous. But, credit where credit is due.
