Almost Famous

Looks like I finally know someone who's headed to the NFL. One of the guys I know from high school just got drafted in this year's NFL lottery by the Oakland Raiders. My boy Ryan Hoag picked up the Mr. Irrelevant award for being the last pick, too. It's pretty weird to imagine Ryan playing in the NFL. He was pretty lanky in high school. A total goofball who joked around all the time with everyone in class, he was especially fond of poking fun at me in AP Calc because I was the teacher's aide. He's a sweet kid with a lot of heart so I hope he will thrive in the NFL. Hopefully I will be able to find an excuse to attend our 5-year reunion this summer and chat with him.
