Dear Friends,
Welcome! I'm happy to have this forum to share my thoughts and memories with you. I was honored to play professional football with the New England Patriots and to enjoy a college football career at the University of Central Florida. Growing up in Jacksonville, Florida, I was blessed with a house full of love. Now, I am looking forward to sharing photos of my friends and activities, and to invite you to become a part of what we are doing.
It is my goal to share my messages of hope and inspiration and the positive thinking and attitude that has helped me to face my own life challenges. In my new book, Why Did It Happen To Me, you will find my life story with all of the good times and the bad. If you are facing difficult times in your life, you may find that my words support you in your struggles.
I believe that a wide open field awaits the wide-awakened man. When we are conscious to the realm of possibility, using our gifts, visions, dedication and discipline, there is nothing to prevent us from accomplishing our destiny. I hope that together, through sharing information here and as I meet you around the country, we will reach our goals and achieve our dreams.

at the Foster Buddies Network
It was an inspiring day of community service
as Elgin joined in the fun at the Flag Football Kick-Off for the Foster Buddies Network of Orlando.
Surrounded by young people ready to take to the field, he had the chance to speak to the kids and parents with a motivational message of hope and inspiration. Not to be left on the sidelines, he then played some some flag football with the participants.
It was a great day for the kids in the group, whose mission is to make a difference in the lives of children in foster care. Through a team of committed volunteers, the Foster Buddies Network aims to bring awareness to the public, as well as create activities that support the kids through their daily challenges and help them to look forward to the future.
