My junior High Cheerleading squad won The State Championship. We spent a lot of time and hard work on that routine so it was cool that it paid off. We were in the paper too :)

I also played in a church league basketball girls team. We lost in the champ game. i cried.

In high school, I pole vaulted 10'6"

In high school, I returned a kickoff for a TD as kickoff returner.

In high school, I was named MVP of the championship game in a select soccer tournament up in Boone, after kicking the game-winning penalty kick- I got a ribbon and everything. :lol:

Mocking my fame? I used to get hook ups at DQ and Baskin Robbins because of my football skillz. How dare you steal my 20 year old glory you bastard.

Personal, not competition related:

France, '03, biked from Bedoin up Mont Ventoux without stopping, in what i thought was a decent time, and i cannot remember. I think it was around 2 hrs?? The record is 56 minutes by Iban Mayo.

other mountains:

Col d' Joux Plane - hung over as poo, bout killed me. During the French heatwave of '03

Hautacam - brutal, didnt think id make it back to my hotel after summiting. Stopped a few times.

Alp D'Huez - no way to make without stopping, it was hour before the stage and the Gendarmes stopped me 2k from the top.

Tourmalet - Summited, stage day, no way to make it without stopping due to people.

Kayaking: never thought id ever kayak, let alone paddle a class IV creek at 40.

Competition:

played them all, but no major accomplishments in the Big 3.

I placed in the top 10 in a Cat4 bike race once, which was big for me.

Not sure how serious of a cyclist you were but I know two guys in Charlotte that were/are pros. That are not named George Hincappie.

I threw a perfect game in high school, and then threw a 1 hitter against all my friends at my former school of Independence. I went to the Big I in 10th grade, and then to Butler after they opened. I then went on to play Division 1 baseball at App for a couple of years....I was pretty good, but I could have been a lot better if I would have gone all in a dedicated myself. I pretty much just relied on my natural talent, and didnt really give a poo. Had I applied myself I have no doubt that I would have been playing pro ball....hell I would probably still be playing pro ball. It is the biggest reget that I have in my life....

Oh well.

I'm really good at cornhole after a 6 pack. I even had a trophy made in my likeness after I won the tourney in our cul-de-sac.

Although, it appears I am holding a lunch pale instead of a bean bag.

    • Super raw, not sure he is worth a top 10 pick.  Primary a pass rusher.  A bit like Burns, very fast athletic but doesnt always follow the play.  His highlights look good but when you watch him play you can see he is just raw and needs to develop
    • Personally, I am not sold on Bryce yet--and I do not think anyone is saying they are, but I don't think Ward is on table when we draft anyway.  Not even sure if I would rather have him than one of the later QBs.  I see a lot of potential in Allar, Nussmeire, Rourke, and even Hamilton from Ohio State--Milroe is intriguing, but I am not sure he is an NFL QB.  Ewers is that sleeper who falls and becomes a solid starter. I think that we sign a veteran who has played and we draft one of these project QBs. To your point:  With that in mind, I think you have to take QB off the table in round 1, and if Bryce can string 4-5 games like KC together, we still need to draft a QB in round three or so---I really think Rourke is a great fit for this offense--he is accurate and gets the ball out quickly---he impressed me vs OSU.   Reason?  I think we may have a tough decision to make about Bryce in 2 years--will he be worth $60m?  That decision is a lot easier if you have been grooming a backup for 2 years who can play. In round 1: I am hoping for PSU's edge Abdul Carter In round 2:  I would like to see us grab a DT who can rush the passer.  Walter Nolen of Ole Miss is versatile and a bit raw. I think he could be an excellent complement to Brown. In round 3:  I would love ILB Danny Stutsman from Oklahoma.  He is a beast. With 11 picks, I would package our 4th rounders to move up into the third round and take a QB.  At the moment, I think Rourke is trending upward and he has the skills Canales seems to want in a QB.  Quick processor, quick release. I would use the fifth rounders on OL.  I know that I left out WR--however, we are getting Thielen back, XL will be improved, Coker will be improved, and Moore has been surprisingly good.  Sanders (TE) has been more than expected in the passing game.  I think we need D more than WR, and maybe we can get a veteran WR to sign or find a hidden gem late.  
    • Wouldn't be surprised if he starts a couple Jets games this year with the way the Rodgers thing is going. Giants fans are pissed they didn't keep him lol. He might actually have a little bit of a market.
