Cheers, no regrets ... Fate, circumstance derail Zwick, D'Andrea

``It's been a roller coaster, good and bad,'' Zwick said Friday at media day at the University of Phoenix Stadium. ``That's the way it was meant to be. I try not to dwell on all the negative things. I'm ready to move forward and hopefully I get a shot at the next level.

``The experiences I've had here are something that not many people who play college football will have. If everything goes well, I'll walk out of here with two national championship rings. God throws things your way, sees how you handle them. That's part of growing up...''

Asked if he ever thought about how things would have turned out if Hamby scored, Zwick laughed.

``Naw, I've blocked that one out of my memory,'' he said. ``(I did) at first for a little bit. He wanted to catch that ball as bad as I wanted him to catch it. That's one of the things you've got to put behind you and move on.''

Clearly, Justin is a winner and a true leader. What more can be said about the Hamby drop and it's affect on Justin's fate than the words from the mouth and heart of the guy who threw the ball?

Justin's faith in God, his maturity and his manhood may make him one of the greatest unsung heroes on the entire OSU team. Whether he makes it to the NFL has no reflection on the great probability that Justin will succeed in whatever he does in life. As with us all, he will face advsersity in different forms and ways throughout his life - he has shown as a young man that he grows through it.

It would do well for all the wannabe and hasbeen "experts" on football in and out of OSU Football take an inward look, however shallow that may be, to see the real "losers." Considering Hamby, they should take solace in the fact that Justin has probably forgiven them for their foolishness.

That is a GREAT post, chumly. Myself, and numerous others have said many times on this forum that Justin's success will not be measured by his career at Ohio State. It will be MUCH further in the future, and he is already on his way to supreme success just by attitude alone.

Chumly, I agree with CarlE, that was one helluva great post you made about Justine. Because it's obvious he's one helluva MAN. He parents most be very proud of him. I hope all of Massillon is also.

Look here, obie7661. If you are so proud of him, quit calling him a girl. (Justine)!!! Ha Ha. I couldn't resist that one, my friend.

He has the right mindset. He'll succeed in whatever path he takes.

Thanks for pointing that out CarlE, I appreciate it.
