I used to see Mike Peplowski at Revere's all the time.

I sat next to Jace Sayler for the Nebraska game the year that Maxwell was the starter. He let me try on his Super Bowl ring from the Patriots.

Sat in the same row as Lorenzo White for the Wisconsin hail mary game. Didn't see him till everyone was leaving. Gave him a high five as we walked past us.

I miss Paul Revere's and their big, cheap beers more than I thought I would. I also enjoyed talked with Karen, as well. Good lady.

Kind of surprised nothing has gone in there. The place was sold, I think, and there was talk of an auto store of some kind going in there—not that another one is needed in that area, since there are already 2 or 3.

when they first sold it, Jim and Karen told me it was gonna be an O'Reilly's Auto Parts (I think that's what it's called) - clearly that fell through, as it was about 3-4 years ago.

Disappointed. I thought this was about me at El Az. I guess I’m only a great American.

Sounds like we need a "How awesome was Paul Revere's" thread.

I fueled and cleaned out Magic's plane multiple times when I worked at the airport. Got a hundred dollar tip from him once around Christmas. This was nearly 20 years ago, mind you.

you were rockin' some nice shorts, as I recall - I think your kids were with you. I remember you guys were carrying a bunch of takeout/leftovers.

I was the guy leaning against the wall with my trademark smirk. Definitely NOT a great American.

hanging around East Lansing, I run into a bunch of current players.. funny story: I saw Drew Stanton in the fruits/vegetable section a Meijer years ago.. was pretty funny. He had a bottle of wine and looked like he was picking up ingredients for a salad.. clearly he was having a chick over.

he 'sup'd me. I 'sup'd him back. It was kinda one of those "ya have a date, huh?" sorts of acknowledgments.

Hmmm... Roc might have some luggage that he can't get rid of now. Too soon?

Just saw Marcus Taylor at a doctor's office. He wasn't a patient - seemed to be doing pharmaceutical sales/rep stuff.

If he's any good as a sales rep he can make some bank peddling pharmaceutical stuff.
