Casey is quite the American man in addition to being a professional athlete. I learned this when he came to Kodiak, AK after being invited by his Father-In-Law, Willy Frank, a long-time friend of mine to experience the fabulous fishing of Kodiak Island. Casey stayed at my house, we fished from dawn to dusk together (he's a fly fishing addict, like me), ate fresh caught Alaska salmon and halibut, and just had lots of fun. Casey is quite humble, he didn't speak of his accomplishments at 8-man football in Montana high school football, excellence at Carroll College, nor his professional career as a Lions player unless I asked him. He didn't brag about TV time, touchdown catches, or other highlights, but rather emphazised a rigorous work schedule, time in the gym conditioning, and the physical pain experienced on the field and after the game. Casey has his priorities straight for life as a player and afterwords and is the type of player parents should hope their children admire. |
