忍不住流泪
"One more thing about my father, and this is something I've never told
anyone, including Deanna. My dad was my high school football coach. He was
the head football coach, and he coached me and my two brothers. But I never
had a car growing up. I always rode to and from school with my father in his
truck, so he was always the last to leave the building because he had to
turn the lights off, lock up, and then we made our way home.
So it was the last high school football game of my high school career, and
although I don't remember how I had played before, and I don't remember how
I played in the last game, what I do remember is sitting outside the coach's
office, say, on a Wednesday, waiting for my father to come out so we could
leave. It was dark. And I overheard my father talking to the three other
coaches, and I heard him -- and I assume I didn't play as well the previous
week only because of what he said, and he said, 'I can assure you one thing
about my son, he will play better. He will redeem himself. I know my son. He
has it in him.
And I never let him know that I heard that. I never said that to anyone else
. But I thought to myself: That's a pretty good compliment, you know? My
chest kind of swelled up. And, again, I never told anyone. But I never
forgot that statement and that comment that he made to those other coaches.
And I want you to know, Dad, I spent the rest of my career trying to redeem
myself.
......
But I spent the rest of my career trying to redeem myself and make him proud
, and I hope I succeeded.
Thank you. Thank you. So never discount the importance of being a father and
the statements that you make. Whether you think your kids hear, you're very
important to your children. And the lesson is we come and go very quickly,
so love them each and every day."
