My Daddy was one of the biggest State fans around. He was a large, formidable man with an Engineering degree from Mississippi State. We would spend every Saturday in the Fall, in front of the TV, watching the Jackie Sherrill-led Bulldog squad demolish the SEC West in our matching Mississippi State football jerseys. My room was maroon and white, from the floor to the ceiling. Life was grand. Until when I was 12 years old. My parents got a divorce. My mother remarried quickly, which raised the suspicions of her faithfulness during the marriage. My new step-father was the complete opposite of my daddy. He was an alcoholic, a convicted felon, and worst of all, an Ole Miss fan. I remember coming home after school one day, finding my room re-painted red and blue, the Mississippi State memorabilia that was gifted to me from my Daddy, missing, gone, forever. A giant fathead of Eli Manning stuck on the ceiling above my bed, which was now covered by confederate flag bed sheets. After ripping my room's new decorations to shreds. I immediately ran to physically confront my step-father until I was intercepted by my mother. I angrily protested his actions as she sheepishly dismissed my tantrums by saying, "Maybe you can learn to become an Ole Miss fan." I wasn't going to take anymore, so I packed my remaining belongings and left to live with my Daddy in his truck. And we lived in his truck for four years until I lost him in a Ole Miss gang-related confrontation on the street corner one morning on the way to school.
