    The Detroit Free Press has a powerful and really nice video and story of Courtney Hawkins who played for
    Tampa Bay and Steelers. He came back home to Flint, MI to coach his former high school and teach the kids
    important lessons on and off the field.

    We've all see stories like this but the video journalist and writer did an amazing job on it. The video is about 10 minutes long but
    is interesting and you just want to keep watching, nice web design as well.

    We all have seen stories like this but its rare when you see one that is both powerful and nice at the same time.

    I was surprised the video had the language in it that it did without any kind of warning.
