a classy person says goodbye to the NFL...

a shocking announcement,and a major shock to the Detroit Lions,wide receiver Calvin Johnson announced his retirement after nine seasons in the NFL... a true classy person,and a classic tough guy(i mean battling injury,and saying little about that)... Megatron was probably the best wide receiver the Lions had,in their team history... when he played for the Lions against the Packers,he was option one,one a,one b,and one c,on offense,and i had deep everlasting respect for his play... he holds the all-time NFL single season receiving yardage total with nearly 2,000 yards,breaking a Jerry Rice record,in the process... that says a lot about him... he is a future Hall of Fame member in my book...
