I grew up in New York, had a dream to play in the NFL in 1982. I was drafted to the Los Angeles Rams.

I have a younger brother who also played in NFL. He was a high-speed runner up in 87.

From Syracuse University, I have a younger brother who was an eighth-ranked boxer in the world

and then I have two sisters, they ain't doing anything.

They were very sweet ladies, but they just didn't have any little juke.

They didn't have any athletics.

I don't even think they came to our games, they just kind of were doing something else, but they're really nice.

They're really sweet ladies.

But yeah, they just weren't athletic, but they were very nice people.

But I got drafted in 82 to Los Angeles Rams, got cut, which means you get fired and then went play for the

charges four years first two years I was doing cocaine smoking marijuana

chasing women running from women was living really wild.

And I was on a plane, team plane, doing cocaine

on the team plane, started walking down the aisle of the plane

and we had a guy on our team having a Bible study on the plane.

The Bible airplane is about that wide.

Sherman, which is his name, he was about that wide.

And he was blocking the aisle.

Share the gospel with me.

A few months later, I was laying on my couch 5 o'clock in the morning and thinking about my life.

I was still playing, had done cocaine all night, my heart was beating out of my chest, and I said,

you know, I'm done with this.
