Just met Justin Blatchfords Dad

Apathy

All-American
Some of you might not know this but Justins dad works as a Deputy and happened to come to my work place to pick up an inmate. I overheard that his last name is Blatchford and kind of figured that it was his dad. I happened to ask if there was any relation to Justin and he said "Ya I'd say theres a pretty close relationship" and then he chuckles and said that he's Justins dad.

I told him that was one hell of a TD he had against Baylor and his dad told me that he doesn't really bring up his son a lot but when people make positive comments about his son he'll talk about his son. He also told me that he didn't think his son hit that K-State punter that hard which I thought was funny and I told him that the way he landed on his ankle is what really caused the injury. Justin's Dad sounded like a down to earth type of guy to talk to.

Just thought that you guys would like to hear about this.

 
It's cool that you got to meet him.

Too bad about that punter getting hurt, but yeah - it wasn't from our guy bumping him. Snyder was lobbying pretty heavily for a 15-yarder, but the ref was having none of it.
