There is an player in the NFL by the name of Maurice Jones-Drew. He is 5 feet 7 inches. He is a running back, and is getting tackled by 250-300 pound men. Who are sometimes a foot taller then him.
He grew up hearing he was to small to play football. So every time someone said he couldn't do something. He put there name on a list. He was picked 60th overall in the draft. Which means every single team picked someone before him. That's 32 teams. "he said he likes wearing #32 because it reminds him each and every time he steps on the football field just how many NFL teams bypassed him in the 1st round of the 2006 NFL Draft because of his height."
This is a man, who think his sole purpose in life is to prove every doubter wrong.

From this day forward, I will not fight with you. I'm just going to put your name on the list. If you make me feel small, i will still stand tall. And if the world trys to bring me to my knees, ill just keep going with the world on my shoulders.
:]
