How old were you when you fell in love with the game?
The moment that had a profound impact on my perspective of football was watching my brother’s team lose in the State Championship game in 2019. Witnessing the Guyer Wildcats, whom I greatly admire, break down and display their emotions made me realize the depth of the pain that comes with defeat. It reinforced my desire to never experience that kind of hurt. However, I have always loved football. Football, much like church, has always been a significant part of our family’s investment of time and passion, with my dad being a high school coach. The Cobbs family has always cherished the sport and its values.
If you could meet one sports hero, who would it be?
A sports hero I would like to meet is Fred Warner or Kam Chancellor. I admire the passion they play with and their ability to make their teammates better.
What is your favorite sports moment, as a fan?
The Minneapolis Miracle. I’m a Viking fan and I watched it live in real time on tv.
