I was sitting at home playing SuperMega Baseball or something when my phone rang. Usually when I'm playing my games, I don't answer the phone. This time, though, it was my agent, so I assumed it must be important.
"Redbeard!" He sounded breathless. This must be something big. "Great news! We've landed you a sponsorship that I think will be too good to pass up."
That had my attention. Sponsorships are a huge deal, especially when you're still trying to make a name for yourself. Apparently some fashion company, Brattison Weed or something, wanted to put my face all over their hair dye, particularly the ones in the red color spectrum. Obviously it has nothing to do with the fact that my name is Redbeard and everything to do with the fact that my incredible six tackle performance has brought a lot of eyeballs to my on-field performances. In any case, I was pretty thrilled to be featured somewhere, though I wish it was a slightly manlier first endorsement. Although I guess it's cool to be getting anything at this stage. I'm hoping that this will be a good place to launch my modeling career too. You know, more places are starting to take plus sized models, and I think I certainly fit that bill. Plus who doesn't love a redhead named Redbeard?
