Jamey Johnson Wants to Write With NFL Quarterback Kerry Collins
If you follow football at all, you know that Kerry Collins has been having an outstanding year with the AFC-leading Tennessee Titans. What you might not know is that since he's moved to Nashville, he has been writing country songs and says he might like to pursue it more in the future. He tells The Tennessean that he's already had a few writing appointments with Ed Hill and Billy Lawson that resulted in the songs "It's Not Hard to Be Happy When I'm Looking at You" and "I Don't Need the Whiskey Anymore." As it turns out, Jamey Johnson would really like to work with him, too. Johnson said, "You don't have to be very musical to write songs. Everybody has a story to tell." Obviously, Collins is not in need of a more lucrative career, so I feel like this interest is probably genuine. I just wonder what other athletes would like to get involved.

This is often preferred by other athletes who don’t particularly like to write. Being aware of the two is what gives other athletes their profits.
