Joey Against the Odds by Gregory "Big Tex" Thomas Sometimes the biggest wins start with the smallest chances. Twelve-year-old Joseph "Joey" Banvelos has never played football, never even watched a full game, and never had a father to teach him the ropes. Raised by his hardworking single mother, Joey has always felt like the kid on the outside looking in. But when he shows up at tryouts for The Colorado Sports Leadership Academy, everything changes. The coach sees something in Joey that nobody else does — heart, grit, and the spark of a leader. Against all odds, Joey is chosen as quarterback, the youngest in school history. With the help of Gregory "Big Tex" Thomas and Coach Bill, Joey is trained not only to throw passes but to live with integrity, faith, and discipline. Through grueling practices, stinging defeats, and the shadow of older rivals, Joey learns that being a quarterback is about more than football — it's about becoming the kind of man who leads when everything is on the line. Along the way, his family rallies around him: his mother's fierce love, his grandparents' wisdom, his aunts and cousins' support, and a community that learns to believe in the boy who refused to quit. But the greatest victory Joey will discover isn't just on the field — it's in finding faith, family, and the courage to believe in himself. Full of heart, humor, and hope, Joey Against the Odds is the inspiring story of an underdog who rises to become a champion — on the field and in life.
