Hey I'm Stanley Morgan Jr, I’m from New
Orleans Louisiana. I would like to tell you about my life and where I come
from. I was born in the Gentilly area of New Orleans, not the best place to
grow up. But I was greatful to have my mother Monique Jason and also my
Grandparents in my like to show me the righter way of life. Around the age of
11 my mother and father and to do some time in jail that’s when I was sent to
leave with my Grandparents in New Orleans. I was a good child growing up but as
you know New Orleans is a place where trouble would find you.
That’s why where im from most kids turn
to sports to get out the neighborhood we grow up in. I fell in love with
football at a young age when I use to play street ball with the older kids. So
that’s when my mom let me play for a local park called Milne Raders. I played
Quarter back all the way up to 9th grade for my freshman team at
St.Augustine High School. That’s when I started not to like Quarter back then I
changed to Wide Receiver. Then after that I started my 10th,11th,and
12th grade years on the varsity team. I hold a couple of records at
my high school for Wide Receiver and could go down as a legend at my school or
one of the greats, such as Leonard Fournette , Tyrann Mathieu, Lorenzo Doss and
many more legends from St.Augustine High School.
I was a good student in school, made
good grades and a good sense of humor always like to make people laugh even
though im not that funny. I had offers from many of schools around the world
but I choose the one college that I fell in love with and as you can see that
college was UNL. I plan on starting a fashion design once I leave UNL. I plan
to have a design that can compete with Ralph Lauren, Christian Louboutin ,and
Louis Vuitton. As a young boy I had a eye for fashion. But some people might
think im soft for being in to fashion so I never really told any one because of
my football image. But now that I know I could go to school for it and make a
career I would like to get more involved in Fashion Design. Now im in the
summer of 2015 where I take a writing class for Ms.Green and pumpkin. So I write because I
have to. I write I want to pass. I write because I hate to read out loud. I
write because im in a writing class. I
write because it will help me in the future. I write to my family back
home in New Orleans. I write to my father in jail. I write checks for those
kids that doesn’t have what I have in life.
I’am a writer who can do anything he
set his mind to. I’am a writer who play’s for the Huskers. I’am a writer who
lost a couple friends growing up, due to guns and jail. I’am writer that loves
his family very much. I’am a writer who loves bulldogs. I’am a writer who plans
on getting some playing time this year on the football team. I’am a writer who
can give back to the community at any given time and feel good about what I gave
back, would help the world in a powerful way. I’am a writer who is done with my
first BLOG!
I really enjoyed reading this. Thanks for sharing so honestly about parts of your life. It sounds like you have a lot charachter and some real drive, as well some important stories to share with the world.
ReplyDeleteAwesome story, man. Posting this the day after the 2016 Wisconsin game, just wanted to say you might have to play one or two years in the NFL before starting your fashion designs - but hey, they will give you big money to get your company started! Good luck in all you do, and Go Big Red!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm a Buckeyes fan and just watched you make a crazy tip catch against us.... all the best to you and I like your blog ��
ReplyDeleteI just stumbled on your blog because I just watched you in the game as well - looked you up because I wanted to know who you were!! I love your blog ;and your story!! Keep working hard! I don't even know you and I am proud of you!!
ReplyDeleteAre you any relation to the very great Stanley Morgan of the New England patriots?
ReplyDeleteI don't think he is. I don't believe the SM that played for the Pats went to jail and if that was his father he probably would have mentioned it. He also writes like he didn't do too well in school. It's a shame those people don't want to learn.
DeleteSee you in t NFL. Then I want to read your stuff. Best to you, Steamer
ReplyDelete"Steamer"? Really? Why? That name belongs to one of the NFL greats. This guy is not that S. Morgan.

ReplyDeleteIs Stanley Morgan of NE Pats, your father? He played in 1980s NFL, he was a great wide receiver too. Ironic yall have the same name!!!
ReplyDeleteI doubt he's S. Morgan of the Pat's son.
DeleteBefore you call yourself "a writer" you need to learn proper spelling and proper writing skills. What's I'am? You made many other mistakes. I guess it's what we should expect.
ReplyDeleteOMG! This guys grammar is absolutely horrible. Why? Why can't people like him, who go to the same schools as others go to, learn to speak and write. He made so many errors. Too many! It's horrible that they let him graduate High school.
