As a young man and a son to
a brick layer, Jerry Rice would often help his dad with his jobs. So the story
goes that Jerry would stand two stories up on whatever building they were
working on and he would have his brothers through bricks way up to him and he
would snatch them out of the air. This is one of the many reasons people think
he could catch a football so easily. So are bricks the reason why Jerry Rice
had so much success? You could relate him catching all these bricks to the
original use for bricks, to build the base and structure of these houses and
building. So are bricks also the base and structure to having the best hands to
ever play in the NFL? Hey you want to be a good football player?...Then go
catch a bunch of bricks.

Cool story I heard about bricks.
So I am a huge sports lover and anyone who loves sports probably
knows who Jerry Rice is. Jerry Rice was a NFL wide receiver who played for the
San Francisco 49ers. He
is widely considered to be the greatest wide receiver in NFL history and among
the greatest NFL players overall. He is the all-time leader in most major
statistical categories for wide receivers, including receptions, touchdown receptions, and receiving yards. Rice was selected to
the Pro bowl 13 times and named All-Pro 12
times in his 20 NFL seasons. He won three Super Bowl rings playing for
the San Francisco 49ers. Rice holds over 100 NFL records,
the most of any player ever.
