Name some cool/random things about you or your friends.

I'll start. My friend's dad was Mark DeRosa's little league coach.

nice fact
and avatar.

my cousin is currently in college, working his way into the majors.
he's friends with a player for the rockies also.

also, my dad has set cross country records at his high school (that still stand) and even records at UVA, but those were broken.

i know a guy related to joe flacco. ive met jim furyk, chris demarco, and kj choi in person before (all golfers).

I met an NFL QB, cant remember the name though, Kelly something, i think he was a Bill's QB who lost 4 straight Super Bowls.

My dad was in the LLWS when his dad was stationed in a base somewhere like Italy.

jim kelly?

thats it, it was at Disney's ESPN 25 year anniversary thing or something

wow.
I've stood 1 foot from tiger woods.
i've gotten balls from lucas glover, ken stadler, and a signed one by will mackenzie (golfers)

My Dad's cousin was a scout for the Reds, and my dad was nationally ranked for Raquetball back in the 80s

One of our family friends is building a deck for Harry Kalas! For those of you who aren't philly fans, or don't know who he is, click here

ive seen him hit practice shots. I followed him around for a few holes at the '06 Open, but I was annoyed by people yelling "You da Man!" Every shot he hit.

I went to the AT&T Invitational last year, where i saw him.

I met Mike Comrie. But everyone who went to the picture thread already knows that.

who's mike comrie?
or what team does he play for, since he's a hockey player?

Islanders center.

Ah, cool.

I've had one golfing "adventure" each of the past three years:

2006: St. Andrews visit. Didn't play any courses, sadly, we only had one day there.

2007: Congressional Golf Club, for the AT&T Invitational.

2008: Duke Academy of Golf, one week staying at Duke, in the dorms, golfing basically the whole day, getting to use the facilities reserved only for the golf teams, video taken of my swing, first bee sting...
