I know yesterday was National Signing Day for College Football. In the Djordjevic house, it is always a tough day. It brings up a lot of memories and i an extremely rough time in my life, when i was lost and didnt know what direction my life was going to take.
Growing up in Ampipe i always played to win, after Nickerson blackballed me i wondered every day if i was ever going to get to play again? If someone was to ask me exactly what was going through my head during this time in my life i would probably tell them the following...I was tested everyday, everything was at stake, I couldn't afford to lose, I had to wonder if I had all the right moves, I had a dream...but that dream had begun to sour, I was busting to break out I had to make all the right moves. I had discovered growing up in Ampipe, that winning was the only way out and I was worried if I had made all the right moves.
Spoiler Alert, with some help, I made the right moves!!!!
Anyway...Congrats to all our new College football players, I know several big schools in our area that were bragging about the amount of signees they had so let me give you a run down of my Senior year....
Brian (Or as i liked to call him Bry) --- Southern Cal
Shadow --- West Virginia (He always wanted to go there)
Tank --- Furman
Mouse --- he played ball
Salvucci --- Pennsylvania State Prison
Me -- Cal Poly
Nickerson -- Cal Poly, then to Minnesota State, then on to Pro Football in Orlando. (Fixed)
Lisa --- No where, she wanted a Music scholarship, but had to stay and work in Ampipe. Kinda sad.
