Absolutely.

Not to toot my own horn, but I always hustled, made the correct decisions, encouraged my teammates/lead them and played exemplary on the baseball field, 24/7: there was a reason I was named team captain for my 2 years of high school and 4 of my final 5 years of community ball, despite the fact I was usually not the oldest player/most seasoned (I only was in my final year of both leagues) or the best player on my team (though I was always one of the three best; always someone better).

With Burrow, I see/hear:

- constant hustle
- exemplary play
- leadership (calling out players when necessary and encouraging when warranted)
- leads by example

I keep telling my wife how he is something special as a human being and a football player, even if he doesn't tear up the league statistically, he will always put us in a position to win and will constantly improve/look for ways to improve.

Excitement isn't even close to the word I'd use to describe what I'm feeling for Sunday and beyond
