I've been thinking about sharing this for a while, but my late father was a HUGE Rondale Moore fan. Dad (who passed away in November last year), was a (retired) Professor Emeritus from Purdue, and was very passionate about Purdue sports (as am I TBH).
In fact, the last email I received from Dad was in regards to Rondale coming back to the Purdue football team last fall. He was so excited.
Dad had been a big Cardinals fan for years, but eventually gravitated to the Colts after they moved to Indianapolis. It kind of annoyed me, but I understood - supporting the local Indiana team. (I on the other hand, will never support any other football team besides my Cards, despite living in 8 states and 4 different time zones. I just can't.) Dad was a huge Peyton Manning fan, and had a serious man-crush on Drew Brees as well, being a Purdue grad.
I had sent a bunch of videos of K1 to him; really trying to get him back on board...I can't tell you how bittersweet it was for me having the Cardinals picking up Rondale in the draft. I guarantee that he would be hugely fired up for Rondale this season.
Oh, and our last name is Moore as well. Another reason why I HAVE to get a Rondale jersey.
And, here's a picture of my dad and I when we took the stadium tour (with my wife) back in 2012:
