        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!

    1. I 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.

    1. "Steamer"? Really? Why? That name belongs to one of the NFL greats. This guy is not that S. Morgan.

  11. Before 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.

  12. OMG! 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.
