The mormons are some of the most decent people you can ever be privileged to meet. Mitt Romney is Mitt Romney. He is no representative of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and stood for the election in his private capacity.Not every Mormon supported Romney's candidature. Dont insult my Church. If you want to know more about the Church find out and you'll know.

This comment is from an infant Christian I suppose. These harsh words against a religion is what could spark religious conflict in our communities. Learn to tolerate other religion.

MITT ROMNEY IS THE MOST CROOKED POLITICIAN IN AMERICA. HE IS A LIAR TO THE LAST DEGREE, AND HE IS THE FACE OF THE MORMMON CHURCH. HOW ABOUT THAT?

Shame on you. What a traitor to America you are with our history of tolerance of all religions. It's built into our constitution, as separation of Church and state.
Disagree with Romney as a politician, or even his religious ideas as a Mormon, but he has the same right to his religion as you do to yours. That's the American way.

I have no idea what the Ghana flag looks like, but I bet T-Shirts with Ziggy on the front and the Ghana flag on the back would sell. Maybe even a toned down version with the Ghana emblem on it.

To make the NFL when you did not grow up with the game is incredible! Keep training hard and do not be distracted by all the monetary request. This includes family. Good luck.

The Asante name sounds Ghanaian alright but he was asked this question and said his parents were from the Caribbean. Joe Addae has Ghanaian parents.

Ziggy is going to do very well. We love him already here in Detroit.

He's a very intelligent young man, carries himself with confidence, and has a great sense of humor. He has a bachelor's degree in actuarial, and he talks like a educated man, even with his slight accent. He is an intelligent and educated man.

The Detroit coaches had a chance to see him in action at a college level all-star game and they saw him learning very rapidly in only a week such that they drafted him shortly thereafter.

He's going to be a star player. Thanks Ghana for raising him well.
