The NFL scouts didn;t like my mechanics at the combine. They say that I don't have what it takes to be in the NFL. What are they talking qbout? Look what I can do. This really pissed me off, I went out and got hammered and ended up getting into a car accident driving home.

Now I'm laid up in the hospital and there is a question about my future as a football player. It's the week before the draft and Erica is pissed off at me for driving drunk. I've list my license and have a trial to go to about the incident. Erica said she might call off the wedding now just because of this.

I told her that I will be getting out of here before the wedding and that I will still have a career in the pros. There has to be someone out there that is smart enough to see what potential I have.

I am watching the draft from my hospital bed and I see that DT Conrad Collier went #3 overall to San Diego. I'll probably be a 2nd or 3rd round choice.

DE Stephen Anderson went #23 to St. Louis, two PSU first rounders. That means they are getting closer to wanting me.

FB Randal Francis went in the second round to Cleveland. It's getting late in the second round, I'm due to hear my name any minute now.

The third round just ended. What is their problem, that's a whole bunch of salary the first contract that I'll be missing out on.

T Alan Lee went late in the 4th round to New England. I hope they didn't accidentally cross my name off thiking that I was alreeady taken. Won't they feel foolish to see I'm not picked yet.

The 5th round has just ended and no mention of me. The announces should at least be questioning why I am not taken yet.

The 6th round just ended. Hey there's a picture of me, let me turn up the TV. The announcers are talking about my auto accident. What do they mean a waste of talent? How dare they call be a head case! Time to grow up? Who the hell do they think they are talking about? How can they compare me to Ryan Leaf? That's it, click, I can't watch this anymore. I'll read the paper tommorrow.

The phone is ringing, maybe this is it. It's by buddy Gaines calling to see how I'm doing. I'm getting better, should be out of the hospital in a couple days. They say I have a few weeks of PT afterwards. What do you mean you weren't talking about that? About not being drafted? You're kidding me? I have to go, I'll talk to you later. I need some time to think. This was supposed to be my future. I'm the next big name.
