1 - The Beginning

At 5 years old, I fell in love with the game of football. I never looked back.

I was always a fast kid. My parents told me that I went from crawling straight to running, basically skipped the walking phase altogether. Whether I was going 2 feet or 200 feet, I would run full speed. For no particular reason. It's just what I did.

Gimme That

Eventually I began to prefer offense, but in my early days of playing I spent time on the defensive side of the ball. I became a defensive beast at snatching flags.

Gimme that. All. Day. Long.

I played on one team (the Warriors) my entire time in the Frisco Football League (FFL) from 5 years old all the way until 6th grade. There was a rival team called the Tigers. They were good. So good that we only beat that team 1 time in my entire FFL career. I grabbed the flag, stopping them from a game winning touchdown on the 1 yard line at the end of game - a buzzer beater.

Like I said...

Gimme that. All. Day. Long.

Go Warriors!
