It's really interesting to finally get his side of the story. I wouldn't call that a good read, though. There's a reason non-writers use ghostwriters. That was brutal. It's a good story told very poorly.

Side note: I had no idea this wasn't true. A few years back I was in the park celebrating my nephew's birthday and somebody said, "See that street over there? That's where Kordell got caught."

No. The rumors were unfounded and started by a police officer, and much of it touched on how he was treated pre and post-rumor and how he dealt with that.

And nocera, I call it a "good read" as in eye-opening/learning new info, not that the way the material is presented is good.

Pretty amazing, how I'd heard those rumors down in SC. Probably from Iglooreport.com or some such lol.

I feel bad for blindly believing it but I was a kid and the internet barely existed so how was I supposed to know? I hadn't thought of it for years until I was in Schenley and the street was pointed out to me as the place he got caught. I had believed it since 98 so it didn't even occur to me to check into the validity of it. If that rumor came out now, it'd be squashed pretty quickly.

Yup, even in Altoona I remember that rumor going around like crazy in junior high school.

Is the Faneca thing official? I'm seeing lots of "reportedly", but nothing that seems official.

I'm honestly surprised. If the dude with 12 or however many ints won I would understand, but Darnold again? Better for the Steelers since he can't put that on the table during contract negotiations I suppose
