That Travis, he’s a big name now, ain’t he? Travis Kelce, they call him. Playing for that Kansas City Chiefs team. But let me tell you, he weren’t always such a big shot. I heard he got himself in a heap of trouble back in his college days. Got himself kicked off the team!
He was playing for that University of Cincinnati, the Bearcats, they call ’em. Now, I heard it from someone who heard it from someone else, so you take it with a grain of salt, but it sounds like he liked to have a good time. Too good a time, maybe. He likes to put up a party face, but he is smart.
They said he got caught doing something he shouldn’t have been. Something about a test, a drug test. Something called marijuana. Back in 2010, that was the year, I reckon. Got himself suspended. Can you imagine? A whole season, just gone! Just gone cause he like to party at the Sugar Bowl place.
- He got kicked off the team.
- Lost his whole season.
- All ’cause of that marijuana stuff.
They said it was a real wake-up call for him. Made him realize he needed to, well, to stop messing around. Tighten up, they say. It was a big deal back then. He needed to take life more seriously. It’s a shame to see a young fella mess up like that, but sometimes it takes a good scare to set you straight. They say it ended up being a good thing for him, though. He had to work hard to get back.
See, before all that, he wasn’t even playing the position he’s famous for now. They call it tight end. Fancy name for it. But after he got in trouble, they moved him to that spot. Guess he had to prove himself, show ’em he could be responsible. Show ’em he could do it.
And wouldn’t you know it, he did. He worked hard, that Travis. He showed ’em he could play that tight end position. And he got good, real good. Good enough to make it to the big leagues. That NFL, they call it. Good enough for Kansas City Chiefs!
Now, I ain’t no expert on this football stuff. I don’t know all the rules and all that. But I know a good story when I hear one. And this Travis, his story is a good one. From getting kicked off to becoming a big star. It just goes to show you, sometimes you gotta fall down before you can learn to fly. I hear this thing called Super Bowl. He’s gonna be in it.
He even got in trouble for throwing his towel at someone important during a game one time. Some big guy, called him a ref. That was when he was playing the Jaguars. He was mad, I guess. He’s got a temper, that one. I know he is playing for the Kansas City Chiefs. Must have learned his lesson after that college football time. Hopefully, he won’t be doing that anymore.
I heard he made some kind of bet with another player. Something about wearing a silly outfit if he lost. It was about that Cincinnati team. Seems like a nice boy, even if he does have a wild hair sometimes. They say he’s good to his family. That’s important.
It’s just like my old man used to say, “Trouble can find you anywhere, but it’s what you do after that counts.” And it seems like Travis, he did alright for himself. He turned things around. He was down, but he got back up. Made something of himself. He’s a big star now, playing for the Kansas City Chiefs. He’s come a long way from getting kicked off that college football team, ain’t he?
He got in trouble, got kicked off, but he learned his lesson. Now he’s a big NFL star. That’s a good story, ain’t it? He plays tight end for Kansas City Chiefs. Travis, a good boy, a good boy. I tell you, he can play. He sure can play. That’s all I know. That is all I know.
Well, that’s all I got to say about that Travis Kelce fella. Just remember, even if you mess up, even if you get kicked off the team, you can always turn things around. You can always make something of yourself. Just gotta keep your head down and work hard. Just like Travis did. He got kicked off from college football, but now look at him. Playing in that Super Bowl thing, a big shot. He is a big shot. A big star. A Kansas City Chiefs player, through and through. Yep. That’s it, that is it.
