I think that’s gotta be one of the lesser talked about inconveniences of being a professional athlete - you miss a lot of important stuff and family. 
 

you hear it a bit from coaches or players when they retire, they often say they wish they could have been a better dad.

Yeah. It’s no fun. I used to travel for a living. Put up over 150,000 airline miles in a year.  It’s hard on a family when you have kids.  

Don’t miss giving that up at all.

From what I hear for players yes, coaches not as much because they are still busy with scouting, draft prep, planning for training camp etc etc.  The fact more coaches aren’t fighting for cushy tv jobs tells you about how competitive these guys are.

Since he was on an away trip for the 49ers game, his old Bucs teammates stepped up  for Gerald’s sons senior night.  Nice gesture by his old team.  They posted a cool Instagram message to him. 

Kudos to all of them.

This is the kind of stuff we need to see more of. Love it.
