This is certainly one of the best Hall of Fame speeches I ever heard. The soft-spoken Curtis Martin, the former running back great, spoke about how football, which he didn’t find too interesting in high school and college, not only saved his life but molded him into the man he is today. He spoke about his childhood, growing up amid the crime and violence of a tough Pittsburgh neighborhood and how much his mother meant to him and how much he meant to her. Great speech.
