The Athlete

...THE ATHLETE

Man, oh man...my first true love. Football. Although I became very talented at a few other sports (Basketball, Track, Wrestling, Volleyball, Boxing), no other sport compares to my love for this game. Should I even try to express my appreciation to God for allowing my major talents and gifts to come in the form of athleticism, this entire site does not provide enough space-let alone this page. But I will say, that I have had some of the absolute greatest moments of my life stem from being an athlete. Although I never did achieve my childhood dream of the NFL, I did get just outside of it with successful careers in both the Arena League, The Canadian Football League, and the European football league in which I led my team to a Superbowl Championship. (More on that below.) I enjoyed a great collegiate career as a running back at the University of Louisville, stemming from a high school career that began at my beloved high school, Bedford High School in Ohio (You know, Halle Berry went there. My wife "loves" it when I bring that up ;0) I still stay busy with sports and enjoy watching all kinds. I am participating in an annual charity basketball game in Louisville called the Red and Blue Hardwood Classic that matches former Louisville collegiate greats with those from the University of Kentucky. I will always try to maintain my athleticism...when it leaves, I'll officially feel old ;0)
