Somebody in the comments section recently wrote that they dislike when I start a story by saying that somebody is a “good dude.”

So instead of starting off this post with that, I put it in the headline instead.

Anyway, Alshon Jeffery went to visit a kid who wrote him a letter of encouragement after the Eagles’ divisional round loss:

It was an eight-year-old girl named Abigail who penned Alshon, after the jump:

Good stuff by Abigail, who seems to compose her thoughts better than some adult sports radio callers in this town.
