I got the chance yesterday to talk to Silas Redd. I had heard a lot of good things about him, my mom who works at a local school said that when he visited to read the kids books that he was the only one who came in a suit. She said that he told her that "He wanted to make a good impression on young kids" So if my mom likes you, then you're fine by me.
But frankly I was blown away. You might not meet a more down to earth, humble, generally nice guy. It's nice to know that in a world full of guys like McGloin (Who in his defense none of us really know) that we've got guys like Silas trying to do the right thing the right way. It makes it really easy to root for somebody like that.
