Short story first:

High School, I had 4 letters of offer from US College Football programs, Alabama, Auburn, Oregon, Syracuse.

I signed with Alabama (of course NO SNOW) plus when I went down there there were just a tonne of hottie Brunettes (Brunettes with no Tats, no Implants and a southern slang - damn).

Well I was already to start taking the US High School tests when bam tore my left knee in a tounament in Texas (Strong Safety (4th linebacker actually who could run fast and was tall) go up for an interception fight with a Tight End and bam some skinny no talent wide reciever cuts my knees mid air and I land with my leg in a V Position).

So here is the worst decision of my life.

Alabama offers me an out, they will pay for all rehab of my knee at a Seattle area knee specialist and fly me out there from Edmonton to do it as well as pay for max 4 years of school plus 3500 US room and board per night if I waive my Scholarship.

I did - worst decision of my life because within about 6 months of rehab in Seattle my knee was prety much back to where it was with the exception of musle defenition. I probably could have played Junior year as I wasnt likely to be a starter as a freshman anyways.

Anyways - worst decision because I would have loved to play college football. Instead I went through a bit of depression, hit some serious lows (main reasoning for no alcohol, nicotine, or caffeine plus others), came back not that bad but still worst decision of my life and I guarantee that whill haunt me for a long time.
