Change &#39 into normal character

In Python2:

In [16]: text = 'Ex-NFL QB's sad condition'

In [17]: import HTMLParser

In [18]: parser = HTMLParser.HTMLParser()

In [19]: parser.unescape(text)
Out[19]: u"Ex-NFL QB's sad condition"

In Python3:

import html.parser as htmlparser
parser = htmlparser.HTMLParser()
parser.unescape(text)

The solution for Python 3,

import html
html.unescape(text)
