Where it Started

Well since nothing in sports has really have caught my eye I feel it’s necessary if I explain where the nickname American Pye came from.  Well one reason is because my favorite super hero is Captain America and the reason is because he is one of the only super heroes that doesn’t have a super power. The thing I like the most is that he has strength, endurance, agility, reflexes, durability, and speed. The reason I like that is because it reminds me all the tools you need to be able to be good at sports. So I basically relate he’s abilities to sports. The second reason I like the name is because one of my favorite movies is American Pie. It is a hilarious comedy that is sure to make you laugh. The third reason is that there is a song called American Pie by Don Mclean. That song is a great song and it really shows the American spirt. The song is pretty much going out mudding and having just a great time. Lastly my coach Joel Sankey was trying to figure out a nickname for me and he finally decided to call me American Pye. So after everything that I did right on the football field I would he there ya go American Pye. When I messed up I would still hear him say American Pye, but he would say god damn it before.  So after all of these reason the nickname kind of stuck with me.
