I used to not like Deion because of his attitude, but somewhere along the way, he figured out that it was not about him, but others. He is a really great guy. His heart for others shines through. His actions speak loudly, especially whe he is working with kids. Congratulations Deione.

He only played for five different teams. Which one will he be inducted on?
