i consider him a true inspiration..with his height everyone pushed athletics on him and it seemed like the only thing he would go on to do..not that that is a bad thing..but he pushed his limits when he took on a new interest and b/c of that we have a great star..he has been so successful in everything hes done so far..i love watching him in crossing jordan..he was so excellent as her father..he just puts a hundred percent into his characters and it shows no matter if hes on broadway, the movie screen, or even on tv..his pure talent for acting always shows
