Green Bay's jerseys sale
(Show from : [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] )
Green Bay's [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] It's a trip they had to take.A promise he made to his daughters needed to be fulfilled.
[link widoczny dla zalogowanych] West Manchester Township's Don Chubb has known John Kuhn since the current Green Bay Packers running back was at Dover High School.Chubb was a defensive line coach and the volunteer weight room coordinator during Kuhn's time as an Eagle [link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Kuhn has spent the past two months gaining experience so he can improve as a player and eventually secure a spot on the Steelers' active roster. Whether it's on the field or with his nose stuck inside a playbook, Kuhn is always trying to better himself, always working to get his shot.
"[link widoczny dla zalogowanych] Aside from his physical attributes, John is such an intelligent individual," Washington said. "He is able to grasp things very quickly. That is a big reason he's where he's at today."
As a practice squad player, Kuhn is part of Pittsburgh's "scout team,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," which runs the upcoming opponent's offense against the Steelers' defense during practice. Kuhn could be playing the part of Seattle's standout fullback, Mack Strong,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], during practices leading up to the Super Bowl.
Kuhn will not play in Super Bowl XL [link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]; he will not even suit up. The practice squad will watch the game from either the sideline or, more likely, from a luxury box inside Detroit's Ford Field.
The two kept in contact as Kuhn's [link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych] journey took him to Shippensburg University, then the NFL's Pittsburgh Steelers and now to the Packers."He was dedicated to his workouts," said Chubb. "Everything he's ever gotten, he's earned. I always thought the world of him. I'm proud of him for what he's accomplished."
That admiration for Kuhn is a big reason why he and his two daughters, Megan (14) and Erin (12) drove to Atlanta to see Kuhn's Packers take on the Atlanta Falcons in an NFC divisional playoff game on Saturday."He's the same guy he was back then (at Dover)," said Chubb, his voice hoarse from yelling "KUUUHHHNNN" during the game.Even after Saturday's game, in which the Packers won, 48-21, and Kuhn scored twice, the Dover product was even-keel after the game. Chubb and his daughters were able to meet with Kuhn."My girls are just in awe of him," Chubb said. "He's just a class act. I told him he's like a man playing amongst boys. He just said, 'I'm just doing my job.'"
But none of that really matters to Kuhn.
"It's the [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] Super Bowl. It's everyone's dream," he said. "And I like to believe that I helped (the Steelers) to be a part of all this."
For Super Bowl XL [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Steelers' story lines are almost unbelievable--Jerome Bettis going home to Detroit to play in a Super Bowl, coach Bill Cowher getting another shot for a championship ring, the franchise looking for its fifth ("one for the thumb") Super Bowl title.
And a kid from Dover High getting to live out a lifelong dream [link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych] .
