Lewis witnessed two murders in Atlanta and claimed he didn’t know the facts of the case . I have never watched a game he has ever played in . That’s how much I adore that thug .

I signed it when it was down around 21K. If you haven’t signed it, I urge you to do so. If he can’t honor the flag especially in a foreign nation, he doesn’t deserve a statue honoring him and his career.
