As some of you may know my nephew Tommy Crabtree plays for the Green Bay Packers.we all all very proud of him .I would like to share a nice article that ran in the Columbus Dispatch today (1-27). Its nice to know that his hard work has payed off.

The other young man in the high school picture is another one of my nephews ,Ron Ball he played collage ball at Robert Morris they played High school ball together.
Thank You,Mark Ball

Not unlike Red Mack (back-up receiver) was to the 1966 Packers. A tough little SOB that was willing to do his job to help the team win.

I'm happy for him.

Yeah,congrats for sure!

I've kept from commenting in any pre-superbowl threads for fear of jinx'ing the guys in green & gold. LOL

It was'nt exactly the prettiest win,but was a win none-the-less.

Just glad they hung in there during a tough second half and played their hearts out.

Especially the Defense,those guys pretty much won the game.

Way to go Pack!

Default Tommy Crabtree

Yes ! He does have the tats. But he is really a hard working kid.Their famiy has always had to struggle financially.Tommy worked hard for a scholarship in collage because that was his only way to go to school.He has always loved and respected his mother & all of his family.He has never played on a Championship team ever! Untill this year! What a good feeling it must be to him to finally be a part of a great team.Tommy is married to his high school sweetheart and the just recently had a baby boy,So this has been a very good year for him.
Oh by the way Tommy drove a 1998 Pontiac Grand Prix all through college. So he is a Pontiac Man!
Thank You for all of the nice comments, Mark Ball/Cruiser
