I'm such a slacker

So over the weekend I’m out with the golfing and fishing buddies


Turns out that one of them that I don’t see much and don’t really know well, but looks really familiar.


Why does this man look really familiar? I’m going crazy trying to figure it out.


Well I circulate around the gathering and later we are talking about being raised in the Catholic school environment. No we didn’t go to school together.


Turns out he is a former NFL lineman for the Rams while they were in LA


And the one golfing and fishing buddy I hang around with the most is a former Pro baseball player


The remaining golfing and fishing buddies are just the run of the mill golfing and fishing buddies. Which still perplexes the hell out of me because I don’t golf and I don’t fish.


Well NFL buddy asks if I ever played football – now I’m not that big – He is just being nice – I say yes I played Defense line in High School and then played Rugby in college


He says “ You are a sick Muther – Rugby is for psychos”


I smile and know that he really means that


You don’t make it to the NFL without getting the hell pounded out of you – so I know he at least respects me for that.


Which is cool, because I really wanted to ask for his autograph but I resisted the temptation. I also have not ever asked pro baseball player buddy for his autograph either.


Baseball buddy did ask me to help him coach a little league team with him because he need someone who had played behind the plate to work with the catchers – we had two really good kids for the position and one really bad one.


So anyway that was Saturday night I didn’t do anything else over the weekend but housework and college class prep – both of which I am seriously behind on – I am such a slacker.
