    Thank you Curtis Martin. You were, and will always be, one of the classiest Jets of all time.

    this guy is a true hero.

    the lessons he just taught to so many kids in shitty situations is almost immeasurable.

    i am truly touched by everything that he says and wish everyone in this world could hear him talk.

    Curtis is a really impressive guy. He should definitely write a book.

    Even thirty-something white dudes that grew up in middle class suburbs....... just makes me want to work that much harder, and contribute that much more.

    absolutely!

    i know he has touched my life.

    i always knew he grew up in a tough neighborhood, yeah yeah theres lots of guys who grew up in tough neighborhoods, i never got the real story until recently when he was on wfan a week or two ago. it was an interview that really opened my eyes to exactly how special of a person he is. he didnt go into as much detail as he did tonight but it was just a perfect perfect interview.

    then tonight he went to the places that nobody wanted to hear about. that nobody wanted to know.

    he went there and yeah espn he made it uncomfortable, but we need it to be real uncomfortable sometimes to really understand and learn.
