skinshokies31 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Great story on how The Homerun Celebration started when Alfred Morris scores a TD. Not only are Alfred and RGIII great players, they also have great heads on their shoulders. Growing up playing in York County Little League makes this story freakin awesome.... http://wtkr.com/2013/01/04/yorktown-little-league-team-inspires-alfred-morris-touchdown-dance/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Btubes18 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Wow, what a great story....this guy is exactly what every team needs. A true gem we have here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZRagone Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I've said it before, and I'll say it again....the best part of this new era is that not only do we have two exceptionally talented building block young players on our team, but they're both amazing men with outstanding characters. The humility and maturity shown by Alfred, and RGIII, is a large reason I'm so confident about our future success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farbod21 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 This shift all started with London Fletcher. He really set a tone and adds class to an organization and after a few years it transforms your entire team. Guy has been invaluable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRobi21 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Alfred seems like a big kid himself. Runs the ball like a grown ass man though. Awesome story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thiebear Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Every time i read something about Alfred Morris the more i want to get my RG3/Morris 56 uniform. They are the Hope and Change we needed since 91. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandymac27 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Cannonball!!! Amazing story, this guy is fantastic. Alfred just hanging out with a little league team. Hilarious. With the big no diving sign in the background LOL. He looked like he was having more fun than the kids! I'm just glad he's someone that kids can look up to and be a positive role model for them. So many athletes get in trouble with the law, make idiots of themselves, do drugs, etc, but Morris is a class act. Same with Griffin. We're very lucky to have them both!

mav81 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I had read this story a little while ago. This is what makes me so proud to be a fan of this team. Every team has big names and stars, but the sheer character of our rookies, the way they conduct themselves on field and off field, speaks volumes about them! Hail!

SWFLSkins Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Wow, what an amazing guy, from the car to this. He is so level headed. To get two rookies with such balance in life and work is really a blessing, double blessing indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special K Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Tres cute!!! Is Alfred Morris married? :cloud9: In all seriousness, it's really great to see people like this succeed...especially when they play for my team Their humility and "down-to-earthness" make them nearly impossible not to cheer for both on the field and just in life in general. Here's to many good years to come...God willing, of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRobi21 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I want to see the stands pretend like they are seeing the ball fly out of the park Thatd be so awesome.

The Bounty Hunter #21 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Every time I see Alfred's Homerun celebration, the first thing that comes to mind consists of the fact that we sure hit it out of the park when we drafted Griffin and Morris. Humble, hard working, and a bruising style of running that this fanbase appreciates based off of the likes of Riggo, Brown, Davis, Portis, and the list goes on and on.

Special K Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Oh no you didn't! :box:He is MY make believe boyfriend mmmkay?! :nana: Oh well, guess I'll have to settle for RG3. Wait, my 5 y/o niece has already claimed him * Because I don't want to deal with a massive temper tantrum, I have yet to break to her that he's already engaged to a lovely lady who's a bit more age appropriate, lol. Plus, I'm just happy she's not trying to plan her wedding to Justin Beiber or one of those One Direction boys, haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll just have to have a talk with him to kick his fiancee to the curb! (yes, she seems like a wonderful person, but desperate times call for desperate measures ) If he doesn't listen, I have a feeling you can take her! And don't worry, I got your back! :saber: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonOfWashington Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 That's a pretty great story, especially since I've been wondering since week 1 what his inspiration for that was! Very cool and very happy for those kids, too. ---------- Post added January-5th-2013 at 07:07 AM ---------- I want to see the stands pretend like they are seeing the ball fly out of the park This NEEDS to happen.

RocCitySkins Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Great story, read this article a few months back, great story. AlMo is such a great kid, his story of his Rookie season is truly inspirational and to be honest this kid would have won ROY any other season if it wasn't for these 3 great QBs to come out if this years draft. Great fit in our offense, behind Griff.. I'm excited to hopefully watch him for a handfull of years to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
