well i'm alone in Miami sore foot and all. Dany couldn't come cause simone wasnt feeling well and she didnt wanna leave her alone with her nanna or papa. Got the premire tonight here in Miami but before that I'm gonna meet up with Torie for lunch, it'll be nice to see an old friend. As for the Premire, I love the fans but sometimes the media can be so recycled...They ask the same ol questions. What kind of Jabroni asks what are your hopes for the movie? what in da blue monkey balls do you think I'm hoping for.. i'm hoping it's a success and more important I hope people walk away with the message of the movie, everyone screws up and everyone deserves a second chance. I don't know if I'd have that belief if it wasnt for my probation officer when I kept getting arrested at 17 finally say to me "You're gonna play Football and you're gonna be better , stop getting yourself in shit". And that's what this movie The Gridiron gang is about.How one man sean Porter made a differance in lives of some real troubled kids.
One of the most effective quotes from the movie..
Sean Porter: Everybody listen up. The Gridiron is a football field. On the Gridiron, we do it my way, not your way. Your way got you here. Whatever gang you claim, whatever hood you're from, this is your hood now.
for those that don't know, The Gridiron is a based on a true story of Juvenile delinquent teenagers who while in Prison learn how to be a team by playing football lead by my Character Sean Porter. It's a real good movie, and I'm not just sayin it cause I'm in it..but the principal to the movie and their's so much raw emotion watching these kids go from thinking that no one gives a shit about them to how 1 man can make a positive change in so many people by showing them the pay off of team work .
Anyway I'm gonna hit the shower and get ready for lunch.
