Out of São Paulo,the biggest city of Brazil and 10th in the world, the 6'2 - 240lb linebacker came and will now conquer. Just recently drafted for DSFL's San Antonio Marshals for the playoffs, where he will try to put up some numbers to attract NSFL eyes, the same way he did with LSU scout team who watch him play in the sands of Rio de Janeiro and decided to give him a chance, where he fell happy for the schorlarship and amazed to play the 'American' Football.
For him who used to play in the sand had no problem with the grass, and at LSU he developed like a monster. All of course with the collaboration of the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, that he practices since childhood, and stands out every game when he put bigger and strongers players to the ground like little girls. "It's all about the tecnique!" - J-Lo says.
He's a fun guy, wears #51 cause of the famous Brazilian drink, the cachaça - used on world famous Caipirinhas! (51 its the most famous brand of cachaça)
Also "J-Lo" that was nicknamed in the sands of Rio, clearly because his crush on the famale singer, the similar abbreviation word play. But mostly because what most ppl dont know is that J-Lo in Brazil sounds like "GELO" which in Portuguese means ICE, which is what most of his opponents need after finding who Junior Lopez is.
Now he just waits for his debut, carrying on his shoulders the hope and love of an entire passionate nation. His willpower has already brought him here but it's only the beginning, the first step. He targets the top and the only. Has room for him along the stars? Will he stand the pressure? Will he disappoint? Or will he once again prove people wrong?
Several question arise, only one answer he can give.
Let's wait for the next episodes I cant wait to see that history go.
