James Harrison Took Away His Kids Participation Trophies

Pittsburgh Steelers LB James Harrison is not only one of the toughest mo-fos you'll ever see on a football field, he's also a good dad. When he's not running sprints in 200-degree heat or mowing the lawn in between sets, he's taking away his son's participation trophies to teach them that you have to earn things in life...

jhharrison92I 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
