Chargers Safety Bob Sanders Likely to Retire
When I was 16 year old I performed my first rap song during a pep rally at my high school. I was super nervous, but I got through it. Ten years later after several mix tapes, 100s of performances, many freestyle battles, one independent record deal and 1000s of hours spent hoping for my big break I had to make a decision.
