Day 3 First Love

OK after the Thanksgiving break I am back and I am ready to get back to the blogging!!

OK so day 3 is about your first love! If you know me you know I have been with my girlfriend Adriane for 5 years and she is the love of my life and I can truly say I'm in love with her! But my first love is something different!!

Without question I can say my first love is the sport of football!! I can say football has done so much for me in my life. Football helped me get my diabetes in control, Football allowed me to go to get a higher education, Football allows me to help children stay out of trouble and go to school now, and without a doubt I can say football saved my life.

When I was younger growing up in my neighborhood I, like many other kids from the hood, saw a lot of the other people from my neighborhood get money and nice cars from "being involved in bad activities" and I wanted to do that 2, but my best friend saw my potential in football and talked me into focusing on school and sports and I did. In high school he was shot and killed over his car and because of him and football I made it to college and graduated!!!

So there is my first love football!! I wish I could still play but being able to coach is still a blessing!!
