Never say never

May

At 8:30 p.m. Thursday night, Edgemont’s Matt Bernstein was given another chance at football. That’s the moment the Wisconsin graduate got the message from his agent Justin Schulman that the Giants wanted him to report to their rookie minicamp to fill a fullback tryout spot.Â Truth is, if Bernstein’s home town wasn’t just 40 minutes up the road, he probably wouldn’t have gotten the call. But when you’re running routes in front of NFL coaches, it really doesn’t matter how you got there.”I’m just here,” Bernstein said. “I’m going to practice as hard as I can, I’m just happy I got this opportunity.”Â I took this shot with my camera phone during practice. You say blurry, I say arty. Either way that’s him, No. 45. Bernstein in a Giants jersey.Â
