and simply rebuilding my sps cred (what little i have anyway) and not giving anything away about where I live, what I do, etc. how in the holy hell do they know who this guy is? jesus christ, this is definitely one of those times when your interwebs life collides way too hard with the real world. this is worse than dawgstudent being threatened to a fight by the vet school.

hard to buy stuff like this. Truth is always better than fiction. Nice to watch this unfold and then get to read the book someone (ESPN writer most likely) will write about this later. Hope they are taking good notes.
