Pryor's Apology

So, after watching the Pryor press video, I actually feel a little sorry for the guy. He seems genuinely remorseful and, if I'm being honest, scared. He looks like a 21 year old who just had responsibility fast-forwarded a year and realizes how much he'll miss his old life. As a Michigan ...
