Why did I choose the name Brother BIG10? That is a simple answer when I was little I had a football jersey that had a the number 10 on it. I wore it all the time. There was a man at my church that we boys called Papa Mixson. He started calling me big 10. The name stuck through my child hood. I don't use the nick name now, but I still remember how it made me feel that someone took the time to notice me. I had an identity and that to me was important.
