Disgraced Toronto Mayor Rob Ford addressed the media today after admitting to smoking crack cocaine. Ford said he would not step down from office.
“To the residents of Toronto, I know I have let you down, and I can’t do anything else but apologize. I know I have to regain your trust and your confidence. I love my job. I love my job, I love this city, I love saving taxpayers’ money. I love being your mayor,” an emotional Ford said, via ABC News.
“Voters have a choice. On October 27 of 2014 I want the people of this great city to decide whether they want Rob Ford to be their mayor,” he said.
Now you might be wondering what this has to do with sports? Well check out the tie he wore to the conference, it is a tie covered in vintage NFL logos. There is even a Houston Oilers logo on it. There are also outdated Buccaneers and Broncos logos.
On a serious note, addiction isn’t anything to joke about and we hope Mr. Ford gets better.

If you said there wouldn't be an NFL angle to the mayor of Toronto smoking crack on the reg, you'd be wrong! pic.twitter.com/V0s78JUxan
