It was great seeing players praise Patriots owner Bob Kraft for helping to bring the NFL lockout to an end. In the midst of his wife passing away, I can't imagine the struggle he went through.
Jeff Saturday, center for the rival Colts, said that without Kraft, the lockout couldn't have been solved and ended his thoughts in a big embrace with Bob. His thoughts were echoed between other players as well.
Kraft apologized to fans everywhere for the football "business" side making headlines and was happy to announce that play can resume as usual. All teams will be starting training camps by the end of the week.
I had a lot of respect for what Bob Kraft has done with the Pats turning a team that was for all accounts, a joke of a franchise, to the elite franchise of the NFL. I now have the utmost respect and admiration for him. It took a special kind of person to do what he did with the family struggles he and his family were going through. RIP Myra Kraft.
