Welcome back to the Thursday edition of the playbook. I appreciate everyone's feedback.

They want more playbook, so I'm working on putting out more contents, so now we have them on Thursdays.

I am so excited about this episode. My friend, you've heard about him, those

listeners out there, the Nigerian nightmare Christian Acoye is on the

playbook, the person who ended my career, doctor, lawyer, or failure.

I have his signature footprint still impressed upon my chest when he not only ran me over but stepped on me. Anyway I will talk to

Rick Christian about transitioning from and to the US as an Olympian into the NFL

where he barely knew the game of football and his

reaction to football and who his key mentors and how important mentors are to him

especially Marty Schottheimer, one of my favorite coaches as well.

This is Entrepreneurs The Playbook, where each week I bring you some of the greatest athletes,

celebrities, and entrepreneurs to talk about their personal and professional

playbook to success and what made them champions on the field and in the boardroom.

I'm your host and CEO of Sports One Marketing, David Melzer.

This day Melter with Entrepreneurs The Playbook and I have a dear friend Christian

Nicoye who as he stated when he got here my stories about Christian keep getting

bigger and better it reminded me Vita Blue one time told me,

he goes, it's funny, the older I get, the better I was. The older I get, the better my stories get.

That's how it works. So my claim to fame is I first play in college at Occidental College.

Christian played for Azusa Pacific.

He ran me over and literally stepped on my chest.

And I decided to go to med school after that.
