Email from Mac G: This Guy is DC's Best Kept Secret.

This is an email my buddy Adam (MAC G) sent me. The dude should have his own radio show, a) because his extensive knowledge of sports, specifically all things Hawkeye (because it took him 6 years to graduate) and b) because he doesn't stop talking.

Backhanded compliment meter: 100%

Here is the email, I hope you think it is as funny as I do:

No one can mention Chris Kingsbury's name without me elaborating in further detail, Not even Hogie could live up to the IC legend of Chris Kingsbury, I mean no one can, its impossible, He is a once in a generation college player. Think a slow white Lebron, with a kegorator fridge of PBR, constant flow of whiskey and trees, and someone who is open to shoot once they cross halfcourt. Its extraordinary ability to close down every IC bar Mon-Sat, chain smoke Reds out of season, lites in season, and still be able to bomb 35 footers. Name me someone that could have done that on a regular basis, exactly, no one. Maybe that skier Bode Miller could come close if he played hoops. Here are 2 my favorite, "Where Are they Now?", articles about Kingsburry, I love the quotes. Oh and Happy Fn FRYday. adam

"To be honest with you, I remember nothing about my junior year," Kingsbury said. "It's kind of just gone in my memory. I remember a lot about my sophomore year and I could probably tell you 90 percent of the plays in every game from that year.

Kingsbury is still bitter over the way he was treated following his arrest. He also claims that somebody else urinated in the lobby.

"I was 21 and it was before the season had started," Kingsbury said. "I basically got arrested because of who I was."

"I was in Italy when everything changed," Kingsbury said. "I quit (drinking) completely. But now I'll have beers once in awhile.

"But I just can't do it. There's no time for it. I can't go out. Everything is just a lot more serious."

Kingsbury was my idol when I was younger I loved how he just didn't give a fuck. He did what he wanted to. If you must piss in bar or in a hotel lobby you must be discrete about it, right Schmooke?
Also I forgot to tell you guys when I was in the Emergency Room with my dad on New Years Eve at about 3 in the morning who walks by in the ER but one tall piece of shit Greg Lohaus. I think he was with his younger son but I didn't see which room he went into though.
