Antonio Gates was back in 7th grade on Tuesday this week, but I doubt he learned anything. Gates was participating in the NFL's Take a Player to School program, which seems to be geared toward creating awkwardness in classrooms across America. The lucky winner was 13-year-old Kristina Cogdill of Escondido, who seemed genuinely excited about Gates' visit, but more excited about riding in the limo with Gates to school.
She also fully understood Gates' canned, NFL scripted speech. Said Cogdill:
I think it's important to be fit and be active every day. You shouldn't just sit around. You need to get up and be active.
The best part of this? The school's mascot was the Raiders. Now that's rich.
