About
- 3rd Quarter: I fell in love with the game of football at the age of 11; with the help of Chicago Bears running back Walter ‘Sweetness’ Payton, the sport became my best friend. I was pretty good in any sport I played but football became more than a sport for me, I was able to let out so much pain and frustration due to the issues at home. For whatever amount of time I got to play, I was able to turn into someone else. I was free from my problems. For that brief moment of playing football, I didn’t have a worry in the world! I remember not being able to sleep without having my football with me! Starting from the age of 10, I was constantly reminded of my stature (lack there of). I recall my very first day at camp my freshmen year; all the players had to weigh-in. No one had to tell me what my dimensions were; I knew it all too well!! (5’6” 98lbs). I was extremely paranoid about my weight; I was so afraid of getting cut from the team due to my lack of size, I tied weights around my waist and tucked them in my sweat pants so it would appear that I was heavier than I actually was!
