註釋Anthony Gardner was a young man seemingly blessed in all facets of life. He followed the expected all- American path: he was 3.0 student and star quarterback for a Catholic all-boys high school. Following high school, his athletic ability afforded him the opportunity to continue to play football in college and ultimately graduate in 4 years with a business degree. But his college days had come to an end and it was time for that next chapter in life - it was time to take on the real world. There was only one problem, Anthony wanted no part of it. Succumb to a 9-5 desk job for the rest of his life, no thanks! Anthony had made his athletic career a priority ever since he was old enough to pick up a ball. He was born with a talent and with the heart of an athlete. How could it so suddenly come to an end and be forced to walk away from it forever?When it came down to decision time, Anthony defied societal expectations of joining the workforce and instead stayed true to himself. He chose to follow is passion rather than a salary and peer acceptance. He decided on a less conventional path: American Football in Europe. Anthony's journey overseas led to amazing experiences, lifelong friendships, and a new understanding of his purpose in life, But not without a bump or two in the road.
