The NFL didn't have a draft lottery until Saturday, when a family in Fontana, Calif., bucked the odds in a way only a Powerball winner could appreciate.
LaGenia and David Carter saw both of their sons — David, 23, and Chris, 22 — drafted into the NFL on the same afternoon. Chris, a 6-foot-1, 248-pound defensive end/linebacker from Fresno State, went to the Steelers in the fifth round. David, a 6-5, 297-pound defensive tackle from UCLA, went to the Arizona Cardinals in the sixth.
LaGenia, in her 25th year as a dispatcher at the Los Angeles Police Department, has yet to recover. Her legs still feel like Jello. Seems like five minutes ago the boys — born 16 months apart — were crawling around in diapers, sharing a bedroom, playing video games, climbing trees in the backyard and teaming up on a pretty good defense at Kaiser High School.
Now they're both in the NFL?
Seriously?............
