A gifted running back like Ray Rice is now looking for a job, and it appears as if not one team in the NFL wants his kind on their team.
He was earning upward of $10 million per year for playing a game, which is much more than I earned in the 50 years I worked, including the 44 months during World War II that I served aboard a U.S. Navy destroyer.
I am now 92, and all I can say to Ray Rice is this – God gave you the talent and you blew it.
