Steelers linebacker James Harrison took to Instagram this weekend to show off two trophy’s which his sons received. At first glance you might think he was showing off how great his sons were for grabbing the hardware, but the caption he posted hummed a different tune.
“I came home to find out that my boys received two trophies for nothing, participation trophies! While I am very proud of my boys for everything they do and will encourage them till the day I die, these trophies will be given back until they EARN a real trophy. I’m sorry I’m not sorry for believing that everything in life should be earned and I’m not about to raise two boys to be men by making them believe that they are entitled to something just because they tried their best…cause sometimes your best is not enough, and that should drive you to want to do better…not cry and whine until somebody gives you something to shut u up and keep you happy. #harrisonfamilyvalues”
You have to love the old school mentality James is rocking right now, and to each their own!
