    This is my third time meeting him, hes come to my high school twice to talk to our football team. Met him downtown coming out of one bar heading into another. Walked up to him and asked him hows he's doing and shook his hand. I Said "cheers to getting drafted 1st round." He laughed and said "yeah thats what I'm hoping."

    I asked him what teams were looking at him. He said everybody pretty much. I asked him if he had anymore private workouts before the draft and he said hes going to the 49ers (I think, it was noisy couldnt really hear him) in a couple of days. Then hes going to Washington next week. He was kinda busy going around with his buddies and doing things so I wrapped it up and Said I'd be rooting for him draft day, and said I'll be looking forward to seeing him play in the future and then told him to take it easy and he said the same.

    He's a really cool guy. Extremely smart and well spoken and just someone you want to see do good.

    He was on NFL network with Gabbert, and he was clealy the more genuine, intelligent, and likable of the two. Gabbert came off looking like a moron with fake, canned answers.

    I think a team is going to absolutely fall in love with him during a personal interview, and will take him in the first round.

    You should have asked him why he has a little girl arm.

    I think your mistaking him with Chad Pennington, since essentially theyll be the same player.

    I met Brad Smith and Orlando Pace last month... Sorry I didn't start a thread.

    Brad said he's dying to come back to NY.... I told Pace he should have been a jet and Parcells ####'d up big time.


    LOL.. Just doing some math, the OP was barely potty trained when the Jets passed on Pace.

    you should have left him alone and let him go on with his life. i am sure you wouldnt want to be interviewed while out having a few drinks with your friends.

    I went ahead and cut this down to what really happened, using his quote.

    I talked to Chad Pennigton once. Does that make me hot shit around here too?

    I'm dying to know, so someone PLEASE let me know, okay? I don't know if I can carry on without knowing. Thanks in advance.

    It means you are a cool guy and the women of the board should, at the very least, give you a handjob.

    Also, you should create a thread about your meeting with Pennington.
