Letter: Brimmer didn’t deserve Kantowski’s cheap shots
Wednesday, April 27, 2005 | 9:34 a.m.
Regarding Ron Kantowski's column Tuesday about UNLV's Jamaal Brimmer:
I don't make it a habit to write and complain about things, but I had to say something. I didn't appreciate the negative comparatives given to Jamaal and most certainly don't feel that he deserves to take a beating in his hometown newspaper just because he didn't return your phone calls. You should be reminded that this is a good kid with a good heart who comes from a good family.
Might I also add that he gave everything he had in his four years playing for the Rebels. And as a Rebels fan I can really appreciate that and can speak with full confidence that if Jamaal doesn't make it in the game of football he most defininitely will make it in the game of life.
