TJ CARRIE A TALE OF A HEART WARRIOR T J ‘ S S T O R Y As a professional football player being able to play the game is such a blessing for me each day and one that I do not take for granted. Often, we don’t appreciate what we have until it’s almost taken away. I grew up in a family with four brothers who all played high school and college football. I dreamed about putting on those pads and helmet and playing under the Friday night lights, on Saturday afternoons, and even on to the NFL. As a 14-year-old freshman at Deer Valley High School in Antioch, California, I was hyped to begin my journey. On the first day of tryouts, my life changed forever. It was hot, and we were working hard. I was sweating and was having trouble catching my breathing … and then it all went dark. I left the field in an ambulance and was transported to the first of several hospitals I became familiar with over time. The medical personnel stabilized me, and I soon breathed again without restriction. But the doctors were stumped as to what caused my problem. It was a year later before they had an answer. I had a one-in-a-million birth defect where my right coronary artery was positioned between my lungs. The harder my exertion, the more I breathed, and my lungs would expand and compress the blood flow in the artery. The doctors gave a now 15-year-old and my family two choices. I could give up any strenuous physical activity for the rest of my life, ending my dreams of playing football. Or I could undergo risky surgery to correct the problem. With the help of my family, I decided to take a chance, so I could keep alive my big dream of playing football. On Valentine’s Day 2006, I underwent open-heart surgery at Oakland Children’s Hospital. I spent two months recuperating in the hospital, part of what became a year-and-a-half-long recovery. It was hard, scary, and challenging, but I was driven by my big heart and a relentless work ethic to achieve my dream. I did not want to use my birth defect as an excuse to give up. Instead, it motivated me to work harder and keep my dream alive. I recovered and was finally able to play football as a senior at De La Salle High School in Concord, California, where the Spartans won a state championship that season. I went to Ohio University, where I played 50 games for the Bobcats and earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in sports administration. And my ultimate dream was achieved when Oakland selected me in the 2014 NFL Draft, beginning a pro career where I’ve worn the uniform of the Raiders, Browns, and Colts. Frequently, I’m asked, “How did you make it to the NFL?” It came down to three approaches that worked for me, and I believe can be used by anyone no matter their situation or challenge. DREAM BIG Never allow the problem to deter you from striving for your goal. PLAY WITH YOUR HEART Dreams form in the brain, but the heart drives the desire to achieve a dream. Become a Heart Warrior. BE A PRO That’s the dedication to the dream, a willingness to work hard, staying humble and learning how to improve. My dream came true and now provides me with a platform to help others. I know how much the support I received got me through tough times. That’s why I am honored to be a role model to anyone who needs encouragement or education to keep their dreams alive. That’s what the TJ Carrie Foundation is all about. Take A Chance, TJ Carrie TJ'S HEART FACTS Diagnosed with a coronary artery anomaly, causing TJ’s artery to constrict when his lungs expanded and decreasing oxygen circulation during physical activities Detected in TJ at the age of 14 (fall 2004); occurred during freshman football tryouts at Deer Valley High School in Antioch, CA This birth defect is described by his doctors as a one-in-a-million case Took over a year to diagnose the condition Presented with two treatment options: Avoid physical activity and opt out of high-impact sports or undergo open-heart surgery Transferred to De La Salle High School in Concord, CA, at the end of freshman year Open Heart Surgery was performed on February 14, 2006 (age 15) at Oakland Children’s Hospital (currently named UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland) Dr. Frank Hanley, pediatric cardiothoracic surgeon, Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford, performed TJ’s surgery at Oakland Children’s Hospital Recovery: 2 months in the hospital, plus 18 months of total recovery Everything happens for a reason, and my heart defect was a symbol that maybe I’m being used for other things. It’s crazy that in 2006 before I had open-heart surgery, doctors told me that the chances of playing sports would be far too great to achieve. And yet, I’m here living out the dreams that I once set out to accomplish and encouraging kids who have gone through the same journey as I did that their dreams can still become a reality.

The day-long camp allows youth to enhance their football skills with the guidance of current and former NFL athletes and learn drills and practice habits to improve their performance.

It is at his football camp that he is able to share these important messages. TJ hopes that his message, “Be A Pro,” resonates with the kids long after the camp has concluded and they continue to practice these valued lessons. He understands that the kids come to the camp to enhance their football skills, but he also knows that the life skills that are taught will provide them a winning game plan for life.

Before either party may seek arbitration, the party must first send to the other party a written Notice of Dispute describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and the requested relief. A Notice to the Company should be sent to: online. After the Notice is received, you and the Company may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally. If you and the Company do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either party may begin an arbitration proceeding. The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the award to which either party is entitled. Arbitration Rules. Arbitration shall be initiated through the American Arbitration Association, an established alternative dispute resolution provider that offers arbitration as set forth in this section. If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall agree to select an alternative ADR Provider. The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all aspects of the arbitration except to the extent such rules are in conflict with the Terms. The AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules governing the arbitration are available online at adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator. Any claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is less than Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief. For claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the Arbitration Rules. Any hearing will be held in a location within 100 miles of your residence, unless you reside outside of the United States, and unless the parties agree otherwise. If you reside outside of the U.S., the arbitrator shall give the parties reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any oral hearings. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. If the arbitrator grants you an award that is greater than the last settlement offer that the Company made to you prior to the initiation of arbitration, the Company will pay you the greater of the award or $2,500.00. Each party shall bear its own costs and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the ADR Provider. Additional Rules for Non-Appearance Based Arbitration. If non-appearance based arbitration is elected, the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or based solely on written submissions; the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration. The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise agreed by the parties. Time Limits. If you or the Company pursues arbitration, the arbitration action must be initiated and/or demanded within the statute of limitations and within any deadline imposed under the AAA Rules for the pertinent claim. Authority of Arbitrator. If arbitration is initiated, the arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities of you and the Company, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages, and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the AAA Rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and the Company. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less expensive than rules applicable in a court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between you and the Company in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND THE COMPANY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge. Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. All claims and disputes within the scope of this arbitration agreement must be arbitrated or litigated on an individual basis and not on a class basis, and claims of more than one customer or user cannot be arbitrated or litigated jointly or consolidated with those of any other customer or user. Confidentiality. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding shall be strictly confidential. The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law. This paragraph shall not prevent a party from submitting to a court of law any information necessary to enforce this Agreement, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief. Severability. If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. Right to Waive. Any or all of the rights and limitations set forth in this Arbitration Agreement may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted. Such waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Arbitration Agreement. Survival of Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with the Company. Small Claims Court. Nonetheless the foregoing, either you or the Company may bring an individual action in small claims court. Emergency Equitable Relief. Anyhow the foregoing, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before a state or federal court in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of any other rights or obligations under this Arbitration Agreement. The Site may be subject to U.S. export control laws and may be subject to export or import regulations in other countries. You agree not to export, re-export, or transfer, directly or indirectly, any U.S. technical data acquired from Company, or any products utilizing such data, in violation of the United States export laws or regulations.
