Well, let me tell ya ’bout this fella, Tommy DeVito. He ain’t just some name you hear in the papers, he’s a real up-and-comin’ quarterback, ya know, from around New Jersey. Born on August 7, like some of them fellas from the good ol’ days. Tommy, he went to Don Bosco Prep, a high school with a name that gets mentioned a lot in them sports stories. People talk about him like he’s some kind of star, and I reckon he is, but it’s not just for his fancy footwork on the field.
Back when he was in high school, Tommy sure knew how to make a name for himself. Played for them Don Bosco Ironmen, a team that was always on top, but I hear they hit a rough patch before Tommy came along. He was the one who ended their four-year state title drought, and let me tell ya, that ain’t no small feat. Ain’t easy to get a big ol’ team like that back to the top, but Tommy, he done it, and now people can’t stop talkin’ about him.
But here’s the thing, folks. This ain’t the same Tommy DeVito that might pop up in a movie or a comedy show. Nope. I’m talkin’ about the one who plays for the New York Giants, that’s right, the big league NFL. Now, you might think there’s some kind of connection between him and that funny actor Danny DeVito—well, there ain’t. I seen it in the papers, people gettin’ it all twisted up. They both got the same last name, but that’s where the connection ends, folks. Ain’t no blood relation there, no siree.
Now, Tommy, he made his way up to the big leagues after a lotta hard work. After his high school days at Don Bosco, where he was a two-year starter, he got the attention of the pros. And let me tell ya, gettin’ into the NFL ain’t no small thing. It takes grit, determination, and a whole lotta luck. But Tommy, he did it. Now he’s up there, playin’ for the Giants, and they say he’s earnin’ a pretty penny for it too. For the 2024 season, ol’ Tommy is lookin’ at a base salary of $915,000, though I reckon with all them big games he’s playin’, his pay might be even higher with bonuses and such.
All them folks from Jersey, where Tommy’s from, are mighty proud of him. They remember when he was just a young buck throwin’ balls on the field, now look at him—he’s on the big stage. Ain’t nobody forgettin’ where he came from. But he ain’t all high and mighty, no sir, he’s a humble fella who remembers his roots, I reckon. That’s somethin’ you don’t see too often with them big-time sports stars.
He might be rakin’ in that NFL money, but folks in New Jersey still remember the Tommy who led Don Bosco to that state title. They say the whole town came alive that year, like a real big ol’ celebration. Ain’t nothin’ better than seein’ one of your own make it big like that. Now every time they hear his name on the TV or see his face in the papers, it brings back memories of them glory days on the field.
So, what’s next for Tommy? Well, it’s hard to say for sure, but I reckon he’ll keep doin’ his thing. As long as them legs hold up and he keeps throwin’ that ball right, there’s no stoppin’ him. Maybe one day he’ll lead them Giants to a Super Bowl, who knows? Whatever happens, I know he won’t forget where he came from. And that, my friends, is what makes him a real winner, in my eyes.
