Former Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker Greg Lloyd may have sported one of, if not the, most famous t-shirt in the history of sports. It read, simply, “I Wasn’t Hired For My Disposition”. And it fit like a glove on him, both figuratively and literally. But there is something more to that shirt that I never knew.
It was given to him by a group of students in front of which he was asked to speak, and he promised them that he would wear their gift every day. It gradually grew into a life of its own, but at its heart, his decision to wear that shirt was largely but a kind gesture toward a group of young people that he had touched.
