    I think he came out BYU old though, I seem to think he was 25 when he joined the Chiefs.

    You are correct about coming out of college a little older. "Tait is a devout Mormon and a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. He took two years off from college to complete his volunteer mission for the Church in Tennessee. " from Wikipedia. He is 34 years old. I just remember the whole debacle in negotiations with king Carl his rookie season. Peterson drove a lot of good players away, and probably kept a lot from wanting to come here in the first place. Anyway, I wish him the best of luck in retirement.

    Hmmm just curious what every one's thoughts are but do you think the Bears would be interested now in trading up so they could get a OT? I know all sorts of draft day trades can be made but hey...if they're close to going to the big game they might want that pick more now.
