This past BCS championship trip can't be beat. My twin, dad, and mom were all there. My girlfriend. My best friends.

We rented this cheap arse hotel room right off the beach. Spent 3 says getting hammered and laying on the beach and in the pool. In January.

Tailgated all day next to the stadium. Popped champagne bottles in bed or my truck after the game and kept tailgating.

I graduated in December and to cap off my time at Alabama with that trip was amazing. It couldn't haven't scripted better for me. Getting chills typing it.



When I get a chance I'll type out some of my greatest personal sports moments.

Outside the obvious, kids & grandkids births, marriage etc.

Had to be when I decided to quit working for the man at the age of 44(scary as frick) & started my own business...

To be more specific it was after a couple of years when I realized my dream & that the huge gamble, hard work, headache & trying times payed off & I had made it happen & my business was a success... Awesome feeling...

Hugging my dad after I killed my first turkey that he called up for me is up there. Also, the first time I called up a turkey for myself.

The entire 2010 football season was one moment after another because of all the close games. Walking out of BDS after the comeback was particularly incredible. I've never seen such a large crowd so hushed.

Any number of days I've had fishing where it was like being in a completely different world while on the water.

Shooting 100 straight from the 22 yard line in trap was pretty awesome too.

when my dad was coming to, post open heart surgery, and dropped the gem "now that I'm awake let's find that walrus who took a dump in my mouth" That was the first moment I felt good about his health issues in a while

Awesome moment...
