(S23) - PT 4 - The Butterfly Effect

[JBLAZE_THE_BOSS]

After a strong amateur career as a solid field general, my spot at QB was not guaranteed in the DSFL. I was approached by several agents who told me that I had no chance to be a QB at this level. They told me that there were too many people in the pipeline already that have “claimed” their spot as QB. They wanted to try and get me to switch positions—WR or CB. I have spent most of my life playing football, and for most of that time, I have been a quarterback. The offer was on the table from several teams to pay me handsomely if I decided to change away from being a QB. Instead, I decided to gamble on myself. I put my best effort forward and it resulted in my big break, selected in the draft by the Tijuana Luchadores. Despite the fact that there were a bunch of QBs taken ahead of me during the draft, the point is the Luchadores took me as a QB and intended to use me as one. They showed that they had faith in me, and I hope to repay that faith someday by being a good quarterback. I have to follow in the footsteps of Slothlisberger, but he’s been cool as heck and I am ready for the challenge. I’m glad I stayed at QB and hope to be an NSFL QB someday soon.
