It really did. In fact... I wrote a play that ran for 17 years and the play's title is Runt of the Litter. And that is the story my dad told me that changed everything for me. So the first time I was going to ever play tackle football, I was a freshman in high school. So what was I, 12 or 13? The first day of practice, they weighed and they measured us for the game program for our freshman year.

And so I remember like being in line and getting up on the scale in front of the whole team. And the coach is sitting there right next to the scale and measuring my height. And I remember I was, I think I weighed about a hundred pounds, right in between 105 pounds. So on the smaller end, and I just remember the coach laughing and saying that I was too small.

to play football, but he didn't know I had this dream of being not only a football player, but the best at my position, right? So I just remember being in tears after he told me that, and my dad picked me and my brother up after practice, and we had a 17 mile drive back home in my dad's pickup. And I just remember my dad said, what's the matter? And I said, well,

I don't think my school has one. And he told me a story about the dog, the ranch dog on our ranch. So in those days, a cattle rancher, you couldn't afford to hire a bunch of men to help you with all the cattle. So you had excellent dogs that helped you. And one particular dog was the ranch dog. And it was always like really heralded in my family. Like that dog was special. And it was valuable.

You could tell the way it was fed and the way it was treated and the way everybody loved it. And the dog was serious, right? The dog wasn't playful. It wasn't like chasing sticks. It was a serious working dog on the ranch. And that dog could do the work of 10 men. And that's what my dad told me. He goes, for the ranch dog? And I said, yeah. I said, I love that dog.

And my dad goes, yeah, that dog does the work of 10 men. And the reason you love that dog is because before you ever met that dog, it was a little puppy and it was born to the prior ranch dog who used to work on the ranch. So when the working ranch dog has puppies, the rancher does something.
