But football gave me an option. It taught me discipline and dedication, and strangely, it gave me faith. Because Mom said my talent
was God-given. So each night I promised
to give something back in return. By the time I was 16, I wasn'tjust your average
high school football player. I was what they called a "sure thing." All-American Brian Banks with the tackle! Brutal hit by Brian Banks,
all the way up here in the press box. I played middle linebacker
on one of the best teams in the country. We had two thousand fans at every game. But to be honest, I only heard one. Yes! That's my baby!
