Greg Little should take nothing for granted in NFL

Posted Sep 13, 2011
On Labor Day, I was at a gym in Durham and saw "Fast" Willie Parker lifting weights. There was Parker, 30, in a weight room with me instead of at an NFL compound. What you have to appreciate is that a pro football career doesn't last all that long. Ideally, Greg Little’s big mistakes in college will keep him from royally messing up in the pros, where his career, not just a season, is on the line. (Durham Herald-Sun)
