This here story, it’s about that young fella, Derek Stingley Jr., and that other one, Dalton Schultz. Heard them names on the radio, you know. They play that football, the rough kind. Now, I ain’t one for watching much of that, too much hootin’ and hollerin’ for my taste, but these two, they been makin’ some noise. Some say this Derek Stingley Jr., he’s a good one, play on the corner, whatever that mean. I think it mean he run real fast and knock folks down.
And that Dalton Schultz, he’s a big fella, a tight end, they call him. He catch the ball, I reckon. Now, I heard they was fightin’, these two. Right there on the field, durin’ practice. Can you believe that? Like a couple of roosters in a henhouse. This Derek Stingley Jr., he just went right at that Schultz boy. Laid him out flat, they said. Don’t know what got into them. Maybe the heat. Heat make folks do crazy things. That Houston Texans training camp, it must be hot as blazes down there in Texas.
They say that Derek Stingley Jr., he only played 11 games last year. He’s still young though. He made a good show, with 39 tackles. Now, I don’t know much about these tackles, but it sounds like he’s stoppin’ folks, that’s good, ain’t it? That’s what you want in that game, right? Stop the other fellas from gettin’ where they wanna go. This Derek Stingley Jr., he probably got a good head on his shoulders. I hope so. Gotta stay focused to play that football.
But this fightin’ stuff. That ain’t right. You gotta keep your cool, even when it’s hot. Even when you’re playin’ that rough game. That Dalton Schultz, he must have done somethin’ to rile up that Derek Stingley Jr. Somethin’ must have happened to cause a training camp fight. Lord knows. Maybe they just need a good talkin’ to. Settle their differences like grown men. That’s what my pappy used to say. “Settle your differences with words, not fists.” ‘Course, he was a preacher, so he would say that. But it’s true, ain’t it? Fightin’ don’t solve nothin’.
These Houston Texans, they a big deal, I guess. See their name everywhere. Hear it on the radio, see it in the paper. They got all them fans, all hollerin’ and screamin’. It’s a whole other world, that football world. But at the end of the day, they just men, playin’ a game. This Derek Stingley Jr. and Dalton Schultz, they just two men. And they need to remember that. You can be tough, you can be strong, but you gotta be smart too.
That Derek Stingley Jr. though, he really made a big splash at that Texans’ training camp. Everyone was talkin’ about him. Guess he’s somethin’ special. I don’t know. I ain’t seen him play. But folks sure are talkin’ about him. Maybe he gonna be a big star. Maybe he already is. But stars, they gotta shine bright, not burn out, you know?
