An eight year-old Florida boy penned a letter to Ezekiel Elliott, and I'm suddenly re-examining my 28-year-old "no kids not never" policy.
Here's the letter in full, via @taylor1019:
@EzekielElliott my 8 year old son wrote you this letter. He is changing to #15 next season. #rolemodel pic.twitter.com/1MIBs8dnzL

And here it is, transcribed [sic'd obvii] if reading eight-year-old is a problem for you:
Dear Ezekial Elliott,
I am your bigest fan! I think that you're the best running back ever! I watch every game on Saturday. You are so good that you should win a Nobel Peace Prize.
Anyway, I wish I could be like you, but I am to slow so I won't be as good. I wish I could come to all your home games, but I live in Florida so it will be hard. I really wanted to know if you played baseball or basketball too? Because I play baseball for the 8u (8 and under) Panelli's Park Crushers and I want to play basketball. I play football for the Oldsmor Falcons. Congratulations on the national championship, MVP, nice!
I only have one more thing to say: You're awesome!
from, Jacob Tyler
P.S. Go Bucks!
Somebody get Jacob a Nobel Peace Prize for the greatest literature to come out of America since Samuel Clemens.
