Nobody really understands why Barry retired when he did. He was so close to breaking Walter Payton's record , so close to being on top of every record for running backs in the NFL, so close to immortality. But, his retirement gave him a different kind of immortality. Everyone wonders what could have been. He was definitely one of the best RBs in the history of the game, but everyone wanted to see him become the unquestioned best. I guess we'll never know what could have been.
I think the same is true for this blog. Undoubtedly one of the best blogs ever. Some people even think it's the best of all time. I guess we'll never know. I'd like to take this moment to announce the retirement of The Lewis Report. It has been a fun 5 days, and they will be treasured dearly. But, all good things must come to an end. And that end comes today. Good bye and God Bless.
Love,
Paul
Pretty sure the only thing you and Barry have in common is OSU and ballet. I think I'd retire early too if I played for the flipping Lions. I mean for God's stake Sam Bradford stayed in school another year just hoping to avoid that (don't feed me any of that one more shot at a national title bull). Well anyway I will miss your blog in some small way. But it will live ever on in all of our hearts.
