Episode 1 - The birth of the ''Diesal''
It was the summer of 1930.....
It was a sunny humid day in Jersey City,NJ. Lanequia was about to give birth to her
first child named Jarquando.
Her husband (baby daddy), Dante was driving her to the hospital. Lanequia was in the hospital for days until she came home with
Cuz Hendiesal. Cuz grew up with his mom and dad in a bad neighborhood in Hoboken. Cuz lived a happy life, went to a bad school
and played football with his friends. One day in 1944 when Cuz was 14 his dad left his mom and fleed to Detroit. Cuz and his mom lived
alone and they were sad all the time. This motivated Cuz to play football and become a star QB. In middle school and high school he
got scholarships for colleges for football. He knew he was going to provide his mom with money. On March 5th 1948, when Cuz was 17, he
led his High school team called the Bears to win the championship. During the game he threw 516 yds and 6tds. The Cincinnatti Bengals
were watching him play the game. They called him down to Ohio to practice with the Bengals. Cuz was great. He got a scholarship to Michigan
University in Detroit. Their he played for his college team called the Sharks. He again led his team to the Championships and won Detroit a
tenet. Cincinnatti was so excited that they drafted him to play for the Bengals. By summer of 1949 he was already practicing as QB for the open
season game against the Detroit Lions. He ended up winning the game 65-6 and led the Bengals to the super bowl. February 1st 1950 was a day
Cuz will always remember. He threw 5 tds in the 1st quarter and led the first half by 50. During the game, the rb on the Lions got mad at Cuz
and started a fight with him. This was Tyrone Johnson. The fight was so bad that both players were injected from the NFL.(Sadly Detroit won
the super bowl).Cuz wasn't depressed because his son- Cuz II was about to be born. He married Darnella Lamarson in 1952 and lived happy until
one fall day in 1953. Cuz wanted revenge on Tyrone. He found his address in Camden, NJ and beat him with a bat. He tied him and kept him their
for days. The police finally found out what happened and a man hunt for Cuz broke loose. Cuz took his chevy, ordered McDonalds and fled to Detroit,MI.
He hid in a Ford warehouse for days with food. On December 17th 1953 Cuz went to a local grocery store to restock on food. When he came out he
was shot up on the block. Cuz I Has died and the only ones left were Cuz II and Darnella. Darnella took care of Cuz but I will pick up on this
in Episode 2. The Hendiesals suffered a loss but he was a good man. RIP Jarquando ''Cuz'' Hendiesal 1930-1953.
