Bubba Nuck was not always " The Running Back ", in fact football is not even Nuck's favorite sport, or top 3 for that matter!
We were lucky enough to sit down and get an exclusive interview with Bubba himself. We were shocked to head way off of our planned questions. When we innocently asked him, what we thought was a simple question.
" Bubba have you achieved everything in football 8 year old you could have dreamed of? "
His response shook all of us!
" No, to be honest! 8 year old me would have been dreaming of winning the Stanley Cup. Or maybe winning a World Championship for Canada in Rugby. Or playing for the Vancouver Stealth Lacrosse team. Truth be told I like Football, I just dont love it! I was a hockey fan, above and beyond everything. Unfortunately my on ice skills were never as great as my grid iron skills.
Football was my paycheck, my way in to University and my way to pay my family back for all their sacrifices. It was a pretty easy choice to make. Go play hockey, Lacrosse or Rugby for fun while I struggled to make ends meet working in the local mill. Or follow the carrot and enjoy my golden ticket as a Football player "
There you go folks, you heard it here first!
