Alright, so you wanna know about this Brock Lesnar fella and his football stuff, huh? Well, lemme tell ya, I don’t know nothin’ ’bout no fancy stats or nothin’, but I can tell ya what I heard and what makes sense to a plain ol’ gal like me.
First off, this Brock fella, he’s a big fella. Strong as an ox, I tell ya. You don’t get to be a wrestlin’ champ like he is without bein’ tough. Now, I heard tell he tried his hand at this football thing before all the wrestlin’ hoopla.
- He was born in South Dakota, some small town, Webster I think they called it. Born in 1977, so he’s been around the block a few times.
- Now, football, that’s a rough game. Lots of runnin’ and hittin’. You gotta be big and mean to do good. Brock, he fits that bill, that’s for sure.
But see, here’s the thing. They say he played some football, but I ain’t heard tell of him bein’ no big star or nothin’. He went to the University of Minnesota, they got a good football team there, I reckon. But he didn’t stick around long. Wrestling was his calling, seems like.
They got all these fancy stats they keep track of in football. Stuff like how many yards a fella runs or how many times he catches the ball. I ain’t got no clue about all that. But I’m guessin’ if Brock was any good, we’d have heard more about it. You know, folks like to brag when their boy does good.
I heard some folks talkin’ ’bout passin’ yards and rushin’ yards. Sounds like a whole lot of mumbo jumbo to me. Passin’ is when they throw the ball, right? And rushin’ is when they run with it. Well, Brock, he looks like a rusher to me. Big fella, like I said, plowin’ through folks.
But the NFL, that’s the big leagues. The best of the best play there. And if you ain’t cut out for it, they’ll chew you up and spit you out faster than a watermelon seed. Maybe Brock just figured out wrestlin’ was a better fit for him. More money, maybe? Or maybe he just liked it better. Can’t fault a man for followin’ his heart.
He married some gal in 2006 and they got a couple of boys. He keeps to himself mostly, don’t do much talkin’ to them reporters. Smart man, if you ask me. Reporters just stir up trouble. His daughter, she’s a thrower, they say. Throws some heavy ball, shot put they call it. Won some championship, too. Guess good genes run in the family.
So, about them stats…I dunno, they got records for how many yards a team runs in a game. Lots of numbers, makes my head spin. They got leaders for passin’ yards and rushin’ yards every year. But you ain’t gonna find Brock Lesnar’s name on any of them lists, I betcha. He wasn’t no big football star. He’s a wrestlin’ star. Seven-time WWE Champ, they say. That’s somethin’, ain’t it? Three-time Universal Champ, too. And he won somethin’ called the Royal Rumble, twice! Sounds like a wild time.
So, there you have it. Brock Lesnar, football player? Not so much. Brock Lesnar, wrestler? Now you’re talkin’. He’s a big, strong fella who found his way in the wrestlin’ ring. And that’s all there is to it, as far as I can see.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I got some chores to do. Can’t be sittin’ around talkin’ ’bout football all day. Got to get dinner on the table. Them grandkids will be here soon, hungry as bears.
