Despite a stuttering problem, Chargers return man Sproles is
Darren Sproles etched his name in NFL lore earlier this month when he became just the ninth player in NFL history to return a kickoff and a punt for a touchdown in the same game. More... (http://www.nctimes.com/articles/2007/11/30/sports/professional/chargers/22_15_4311_29_07.txt)

I don't know if anyone has seen him interview..
I could only watch this once... I feel so bad.

Here's a video on youtube of him as he played for Kansas State.
I kinda feel like crying for him. Obviously this video was put up to ridicule him, but I really feel for the guy. It's a tough thing to deal with. Communication is probably the most important thing we do on a day to day basis.
Sproles is the man for taking it head on and not letting it control him or get him down.

Yeah I imagine it's very frustrating for the guy to know what he wants to say but have a hard time getting it out. I hate when people make fun of people like that, it's not funny. This guy I'm sure is a nice kid who works hard and deserves respect and I admire the fact that he doesn't let something like this hold him back (not trying to over dramatize it though lol) I'm also glad he's gotten some returns for scores now so people on this site will stop asking for him to be replaced as the return guy, if you notice now nobody wants to kick to him which means he has the other teams respect. I think he's solidified his place on this roster for at least another season or two (at least I think he has)

he did a radio interview last week with Chris Ello on 1360, he is improving and made a good impression on Ello

I honestly dont think Darren needs people wanting to cry for him or people feeling sorry for him.

His strongest stuttering is that quick stutter step of his. :logo
Keep it up Sproles. Keep progressing. We need more returns for TD's.
Goal: Make yourself the Hester of the AFC.
