    I believe Vlasic had been cut the year before. Given my size, I had to think fast it was either Blundin or Joe Montana. I knew I wasn't going to pull off Joe Cool.

    15 years ago, a drunk in a bar was convinced I was Phil Simms. After denying it for minutes, I finally played along and talked about what a bear Parcells was to play for and just being in the zone for Super Bowl XXI, what it was like to be the MVP, shouting "I'm Going to Disneyland!". Even made up a story about keeping Lawrence Taylor from jumping off a 9-story building on a road trip to Dallas...

    Drunk finally asks, "well, where is your Super Bowl ring?"

    Me (without hesitating): "I'm not going to bring my ring when my son is on a college recruiting trip here."

    I signed a cocktail napkin, "Phil Simms, SB XXI MVP" and left...

    I was there both times Bob Dole announced he was running for president.

    I hold the record in the 1600-meter run at my high school, which closed last year. Fastest Cougar miler for all time.

    I have a labradoodle and a goldendoodle.

    I saw a streaker roam the Tiger Stadium outfield and avoid capture for nearly five minutes.
    I got deported from Canada.
    I broke my windshield with my bare hand.

    All in one day.

    And I have a supple ass ... but you knew that.

    Is it OK that I threw up over this?

    I haven't worn jeans since May of 2000, and those jeans were not mine.
    I did a half iron man last July and have not worked out more than five times since.
    My four front top teeth are fake.

    - Witnessed only one of 15 unassisted triple plays in baseball history.

    - Once went 30 days without speaking out loud.

    - Have not thrown up since April 2, 1997. Was staying up late with the flu watching opening day of the Oakland A's vs. the Cleveland Indians. An old, fat Kevin Mitchell homered for Cleveland.

    When asked to give a demonstration in a public speaking class in high school, I
    showed the class how to deal yourself four aces.

    The first time I walked into a news room of a major city daily, pneumatic tubes and all, featuring one of
    the most historically-distinctive city deskmen in US history with a marvelous sklll of being able
    to impersonate anybody, I was lost to the cause for good.

    I have never participated in any sort of fantasy league.

    How different is it than bringing in your phone, if it's an iPhone or something similar?

    I had a roommate who was like that once. He would even try to carry on a conversation with me via IM while taking care of business.
