New Entrant In "Wins At Life"

Brian October 1st, 2009 at 1:54 PM

I don't think this quite lives up to getting Tom Hammond-themed clothing banned at Brother Rice, but it ain't far off:

-----------------------------

This was in the basement of the Union and my friend asked denard to sign his forehead, he kindly asked if he really wanted him to do this, he said yes and the rest is history.

This guy has to not shower until Saturday, right? I think that's a rule: if Denard Robinson signs part of your head you have to keep it there until the next game.

I wouldn't suggest that... in 1994 while walking through the Diag I ran into Tyrone Butterfield and had him sign my chest over my heart. Went to a tatoo parlor and had him put an array of Roses and "Team MVP and Big 10 Champs 1994-1996" over it. Needless to say, I regret that decision.

That's actually one of those super-high frame rate cameras the tv networks use to provide those awesome super-slow motion replays. Even so, Denard showed up on only one frame.

I shook denard's hand when I met him before the spring game at my place of business and I wouldn't call his hands "large." I actually thought they were sort of small for being a D1 college QB...I'd imagine most would have larger than normal hands? I'm going call "small melon."

I'm shaving my head in case I ever run into Denard. That way he can sign my ENTIRE skull instead of just getting the forehead.

WRONG, elno. More like, someone provide that kid with a harem, some booze, some Viagra, a flatscreen (to watch the game), a suite at the Four Seasons, and zero access to contraceptives so he can make as many offspring of awesome fandom as possible.

Along with any who think this kid is "some kind of awesome" or something. As for the showering thing above--this kid probably doesn't attract many "reasons" to shower--if ya know what I mean.

What's better? The fact that Denard signed his head or the fact that Denard was taller than him?

I can't take my eyes off Denard's sweet, sweet dreads. Man. And to think I'd already declared the eyebrows on that Craig "Ruh Roh" kid as the most mesmerizing head-hair on the team.

Is it really necessary to mention that it's specifically head-hair? Is there another type of body hair that you're also holding a running competition for?

Not showering before the next game is a given.... The question should be, does he not shower for the rest of the season. He should at least get some sort of protective shield for it so when he showers, it isn't affected.

By the time the ink dried on that kid's head...., Denard ran home, made a sandwich, ran back to Schembechler Hall, got dressed for practice and made it out for warmups and stretching.
