But Bridge City’s multi-talented athlete has plenty of reasons to smile this week. Wednesday, he’s signing a letter of intent to play football with four-time NJCAA national champion Blinn College.

Those folks should have turned to the History Channel and watched “Alaska—The Last Frontier” or “Family Feud” on the Game Channel Network.
