[quote=Anonymous]Put a lacrosse stick in Spike’s hand. Tell him the other players are the ones who put him down and call his momma a fatty. Then give it time. Watch the boy grow, watch him learn to tie his tie and conjugate his verbs. Watch him hustle and watch him work just as hard as his daddy. Then he goes off to play at Big State. Gets hisself a degree. Meets a bootstrapper booster who gives him that internship because he recognizes the hustle. Then came the job offer. Then came that ol’ familiar work ethic and the spite bottled up from years of all those friends moms who thought his fingernails were dirty and his speech too sharp. That nickname is buried now. He goes by Sam. And he’s got a duct taped pair of work boots in the trunk of his car in case any of his properties need some repair work done. He was thankful for the opportunity and even more thankful for the lessons he learned when nobody thought he could hear their dismissives. [/quote]
