To be clear: i was on the football team in high school in 1986. I wanted to be free safety (and will likely draft another one as an extra, since they excel on special teams) but my coach, who was the high school pe teacher and a former MLB Montreal Expos draft pick minor league pitcher, he ruined my life by saying my 6'1 205 lbs frame should be a TE. I lobbied to be a LB at least (wouldve played it like a FS) but he threatened G and so TE it was. I scored two TDs. But i had a hound dog mentality and wanted to hunt. Every single practice i asked to play d and often did. Those are my fav memories. I am a 9-time chess champion, beating everyone in elementary, middle, high schhol, uni (though getting my ass handed to me in the national finals after luckily getting past provincials in 1979, 11th of 12 in the room officially with two draws, two losses, mossing that guy from the Yukon. Woohoo?) (Oh, and i get my *** handed to me regularly online in chess. Bloody Russians! And thousands of other high rated players
