Super Bowl MVP Talks Team Up For Kids, Sportsmanship and Who Will Win the Super Bowl

Team Up For Kids can you tell us about team up for kids and what it's all about yeah sure of course um Buffalo Wild Wings they've teamed up with the Boys and Girls Clubs Of America for the team up for kids and this initiative is going to create 1600 flag and tackle football teams at clubs throughout the country and the object is to get kids involved in team sports especially football because we believe and I believe it strongly because I'm kind of a Living Testament that being involved in team sports can teach some very powerful and Lasting lessons and you know it teaches you sportsmanship can teach you teamwork and how to be accountable to your teammates it could build your self-esteem teaches you goals and and how to accomplish goals and just numerous other things so we want the children to get an opportunity to experience the good that comes out of being involved in team sports Sportsmanship wow there's so many it's hard to to to list them I mean you know off the right off the cuff I think about this young lady in high school who was being bullied and she's a she's a special needs uh girl and she was being bullied and the football team they got to win they got wind of this story and they took it upon themselves no one asked them to do it but they took this young girl under their wing and uh just went beyond the Call of Duty to make her feel good and feel special they would let make sure anytime they ate lunch that she would sit at their table in the cafeteria and eat lunch with them and anytime she was going from one class to the next one or two football players would always walk her from class A to class B in the hallways to make sure she wasn't being bullied anymore and the bullying stopped but you have to give these young men a tremendous amount of credit for showing that type of sportsmanship off the field Who Will Win absolutely me and as a Super Bowl MVP who are you predicting will win the big game this weekend oh wow it's tough it's tough it really is because the teams are so evenly matched that you're gonna you can almost flip a coin um you look for weaknesses or things that may be an issue and you know Colin Kaepernick the Quarterback for the 49ers has been playing Just fantastic football as of late it's going to be up to the Ravens defense to try to come up with some schemes some blitzes to make Kaepernick uncomfortable uh possibly turn the ball over and they are able to do that with you know the veteran leaders that they have on the defense like Ed Reed Terrell Suggs and Ray Lewis then they'll win the ball game Outro about everything you mentioned today um I would just encourage anyone who's um listening to this and viewing it to go to their website um Buffalo Wild wings.com backslash giving and they could be a part of that tremendous effort and affecting the lives of some kids and their communities well thank you so much Desmond I truly appreciate it have a great time this weekend thank you very much for having me of course thank you bye-bye
