Man - this Thomas Rawls kid; I tell ya, warms my heart to see he hasn't (yet?) lost touch. These are the types of players I root for.

TACOMA, Wash. -- Seahawks running back Thomas Rawls shared Christmas with a 9-year-old Tacoma girl this year, after a video of the girl opening a gift to find Rawls' jersey went viral.
A season-ending ankle injury sidelined Rawls earlier this month. He is recovering from surgery at home in Seattle.
On Christmas morning, he was battling emotional demons, trying to understand why his season had been lost in an instant.
"I said, 'Why? Why do I have to stay in this bed, with no energy, feeling down on myself?' " Rawls said, fighting back tears. "Because I have every reason to feel blessed."
