Love this guy by far the greatest african iranian of all time and will probably be the greatest african-iranian of all time for decades to come. Any idea of where he plays now?

A World Apart

By Mark Curnutte, Cincinnati Enquirer



T.J. Houshmandzadeh was OK with finally talking to the father he never knew and who lives in Iran. But make no mistake - the Bengals wide receiver and devoted dad is his own man.



About a week after Father's Day, Bengals wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh picked up the phone in his Los Angeles home, dialed overseas to Iran and spoke for the first time to his own dad.



"I called him and said, 'Can I speak to Touraj?'

"He said, 'This is him.'



"I said, 'This is T.J.'



"He said, 'Oh, my God.' And he just started crying."



T.J. Houshmandzadeh did not weep, though, nearing 30 years of age, he had not heard his father's voice before.

He doesnt speak Farsi, nor does he associate himself with his Iranian heritage.

Nothing wrong with that though. I wouldn't care about the culture of my father if he was a dead-beat either.
