[Husker] LP is still making news

[Michael Petersen]

Probably a great football player that behaved himself. Phillips probably 
could have been raised in a mansion by Andy Griffith and Aunt Bee and still 
would have been a jerk.

Alot of people lined up to help out LP but it didn't seem to make any 
difference. I kept hoping someday he would wake up while there was still 
time.

I'm always amazed by some of the kids these days that accomplish great 
things in spite of their home life, and those that are nothing but trouble 
in spite of theirs.

Just my opinion.
