No I am not Jerry Rice

By: wymetto barnard

Have you ever been to San Francisco and seen several people claiming to be
Jerry Rice? What about Green Bay and you see a bunch of
fans claiming to be Chipper Jones?. Ok - Here is the real question: Why do people buy team jerseys
with the name of a star on the team? I do not understand. Some people
will pay fifty to one hundred bucks with someone else name on the shirt.

I understand we all have our favorite players and they deserve the money they
are making and fan fair they get. They have worked hard in high school and
through college to get to this point in their lives. The tons of hours of
training and sweat not to mention time away from friends and family at the field or court. Their home
boys hanging together after school and wondering what kind
of trouble awaits them. This is one bunch that usually is the death
of some athletes as they give in to the temptations of missing out on something
that will mean nothing in the future. The true great athletes avoid this temptation
and stay the course of hard work and sacrefice. These athletes deserve our respect
and admiration. But put his name on your jersey?

Neil Boortz and Clint Eastwood are two of my hero's who have worked hard
that deserve my respect but trust me I dont want their name on my shirt. What about those soldiers who led thousands to
battle and sacrafice for the freedom of this country - nope - no name on the back of jerseys.
I do not see the name of Obama on the back of any shirts but I do think I have
seen it on the front - but I do digress...

Today's article is not to complain but to get you to think why you
would pay good money to have athletes name besides yours? Be proud of what
you have accomplished in life and put YOUR name on the back of a jersey. Personal
pride is hard to find now adays and I want reel it back in. Have your son put
the family name on the back and teach him the importance and pride of your family
name. We still are going to cheer for our favorite City. We still are
going to the match with our friends and friends we are about to meet. I bet he will
remember your name. Can you imagine Billy beside you
asking who Livingston or Roper,Padrick or Barnard are? Well let me tell you
who I am. I am a fan. A fan who is proud at my accomplishments and willing to let the world know.
Let me tell you something about me and my hard work.

I hope you have that feeling of personal pride. Be proud and
make as many friends as you can. They will be the ones to help you in tough times - not
Chipper Jones or Reggie Jackson. Enjoy your life!.
