Johnny Unitas Never Quit
Johnny Unitas could have thought he was inadequate as he was cut from the Pittsburgh Steelers and sent home with $10 bus fare money. They said he was too skinny, slow and did not have the arm strength needed for the NFL. Johnny never quit. His first game with the Baltimore colts, he threw an interception on his first play and fumbled on the next two series. But Johnny never quit. In one game, his nose was broke, he had a concussion and his teeth were knocked through his lower lip. He told the coach, I’ve got to get back in the game.” The coach said, “Why?” Johnny said, “Look at the score board, we are behind.” Unitas packed some mud on his lip to stop the bleeding and returned to the huddle and said, “Just block and we will win the game.” Johnny won because his heart was in the game. They won the game because Johnny Unitas never quit with any excuses of inadequacy.”
