It was around the end of S29. I was kinda burnt out on football from playing in college and finishing off the regular season with the Portland Pythons. I was good. I kinda liked the concept of finishing my career there and focusing on becoming a rapper or a lawyer or a zookeeper. But then my mom told me that I made it this far and should keep pursuing it. I told her that she wasn't the boss of me. She gave a rebuttal that lasted 14 hours as proof that she, in fact, was. So I decided to give it a shot full-time. I would've liked to have tried figure skating. I'm pretty nimble and there's a lot of ice in Minnesota. Plus seeing some of those dances those guys do with the babes, damn...they give away that stuff on TV for free. I would definitely have more time to make experimental smoothies. This one guy was telling me about how he mixed peaches, strawberries, acai, and soy milk. Isn't that insane? That definitely beats my milk and ice smoothie by a country mile. But I don't know, this is what I chose to do. Or, rather, what my mom chose to do. Will I suck? Yeah, maybe. But it's good work experience.
