“I’ll see you on the field, Son.” His words were dripping with disdain. “So, when you’re running into the end zone, scoring touchdowns and having millions of people worship the ground you walk on, remember who put you there. Because when the lights go out, that’s all they’ll remember you for. If you want to write your own legacy, remember that only the victors get a say in how history is told. Get rid of the distractions or my version of the history books will be the only one that matters. I gave you the talent it takes to be great. I was the one who made you. You owe me the same devotion.”
