I'm from Ohio, so I played football, football, and oh yeah-football. Never was very good, but man did I love it. Didn't letter till senior year-mostly a gift from the coaches for hard work and not getting in quite as much trouble as most of my buddies. The letter didn't matter that much to me-I was happy just starting on the JV team. Lots of injuries on the O and D lines senior year got me some playing time. I stepped on my right guard's ankle while falling back to pass block and broke it. It was the most sickening sound I ever heard. I knew I'd never play college ball, as there wasn't much of a need for 5'9" 185 lbs. white linemen.
