NFL Draft
Over the past couple of the day the NFL draft has been going on and many college players have been drafted. The one player that has the most hype is the former LSU player, Tyrann Mathieu. After he had struggled with the addiction to the drug marijuana and the many arrests, he finally got to live the dream of playing in the NFL. In the most recent issue of ESPN magazine, there is a whole article detailing everything that Tyrann Mathieu had to do to become sober. Reading this article was very interesting to read because it talked about how he had to leave all the friends he had behind because they were all terrible influence on him. That is probably one of the hardest thing that anyone would have to do in their life. After reading the article it showed me that even though he had dealt with everything in his life, he was still working as hard as he could to reach his dream of being in the NFL draft. It's really inspiring to me that he would still work as hard as he does even though he had a hard couple of months in the fall. He trains with professional athletes to understand how hard NFL workouts and being with a team actually will be. Reading this story really made realize how even though rough things in your life can happen, you can overcome anything and work as hard as possible to achieve your dreams.
