This is a good read:

AT FIRST, IT looks like so many other drives. On Oct. 18, the Colts are down by three to the Patriots late in the second quarter and Andrew Luck is marching his offense down the field. The team lines up near the goal line, with wide receiver T.Y. Hilton -- Luck's favorite target -- hovering to the quarterback's right. After shaking off his defender, Hilton spins to the outside, then swerves back into traffic. Luck sidearms a dart to the slender receiver, who slides into the end zone for a touchdown.

Hilton jumps up and turns to face the crowd. Colts fans wait for his celebration -- normally he'll lift his arms and form a T and a Y. But this time he does something unexpected: He starts dancing. Hilton places one hand on his stomach and raises the other to the sky, wiggles his hips, then switches hands. No one knows what is going on.

No one except for Antonio Brown. The Steelers wide receiver, who is watching the prime-time game from his sofa in Pittsburgh, jumps up and bursts out laughing. He immediately recognizes his own dance.

Liberty City is a tough place to grow up in greater Miami much like Santonio Holmes growing up in Belle Glade which is an agricultural ghetto in a rural part of Florida right on the southern edge of Lake Okeechobee.

Hilton went to my alma mater, FIU (Class of 1988).
