Fabulous story from the Charlotte Observer about Darmone Jenkins, father of Cullen and Kris, who raised his boys as a single father.

Excerpt:
quote:
...Somehow, he got up and fought his way out of the house. As the police cleaned up the mess in the yard, Darmone looked at himself. He was bloody and exhausted.

"But my head was never more clear," he said. "Having custody of them, I realized I couldn't afford to go to work because I was going to get killed and not be able to take care of my boys. It made me think. As a dad, sometimes you've got to do things to feed your family. But I realized you've got to stay alive to be able to feed your family."...

Very nice story.

What's even better is the fact that their father stepped up to the plate when their mother didn't want the job. Something that sadly you do not see or hear about too often.

Great read, thanks for posting.

A few weeks ago for Halloween, Cullen took his kids trick-or-treating in their neighborhood.
Kris dressed up as the tooth fairy for a party.


I'll give up my autographed Favre football, hat and jersey if someone posts a pic of this.

LMAO

"I was just talking about him maturing (Kris) because of the injuries and the problems he went through," Cullen said with a laugh. "But, man, if he's dressing up as the tooth fairy, I'm getting real worried about him again."

Nice work! I can't believe you actually found a picture of him, I should have googled myself first.

You miss understood my original post. I didn't say I would give it up to the person that posted the pic, I said I would give it up.
My son will enjoy these items. Weak, I know.
