12 seasons later Im laying in my room waiting to play one of the biggest games of my career, the last game of my career. Never did I think that when I started playing ball at the age of 17 that I would be where I am today. After the first game of my rookie season I wanted to quit, I wanted to give up, felt like football just wasnt for me! My brother had just passed away a few months before my season had started so after that occurred I felt as if my life was over as well, like I was just going through the motions with anger in my heart towards the world for what happened to him. My parents had always taught me while growing up to never quit something you already started so I faught through the season and we ended up losing in the playoffs. When the next season rolled around I realized how much I actually liked playing football, how I couldnt let the opportunity to play again pass me by. That season is when the love for this game started setting in. Football has taught me so much about life and about myself, I wouldnt trade the time I have put in playing over the years for anything! Although I have accomplished so much over the past 11 years none of it would matter if my team doesnt win tonight. With all odds against us the Energy with play our hardest game of the season. Well prepared we will leave it all on the field and do our best to bring home the trophy! Tonight I play for my brother, my family, my team and my Houston fans. Heres to game number 11, also known as the Championship 🍻 .. bam! 💥😡 #teamenergy
