I’m about to sign my employment contract to officially be a 6 figure guy. Last year, I turned down a 6 figure option to bet on my company valuing my worth. I bet and lost. This time I ain’t missing, I’m doing this for me, never settling again.
I know we live in a world where people like to pretend that representation doesn’t matter.
But there is an entire nation of people who got to see someone that looked like them play in the NFL for the first time.
And I for one thinks that’s pretty cool.
Dorie Miller was a Texas son who ran toward danger at Pearl Harbor.
He carried wounded sailors to safety, helped his dying captain, then manned a gun he’d never been trained to use and fought back.
He became the first Black American awarded the Navy Cross. That is the kind of courage we should honor, not erase.
