We have been rookies

Rookie wide receiver Jordan Addison had a game to remember as the Minnesota Vikings stunned the San Francisco 49ers 22-17 on Monday.

The 21-year-old finished the game at US Bank Stadium with an impressive stat line, seven catches for 123 yards and two touchdowns, including one particularly memorable moment.

He took the ball away from a would-be interception.

We all know what it’s like to be a rookie.

We’re filled with excitement and apprehension.

My first day as a rookie salesman at IBM was memorable.

The suit I wore was not nearly as expensive as those worn by other salesmen.

One of them came up to me and said, “Nice suit, where do you get it shined?”

60 years later, I’m still embarrassed!
