  1. I once watched this man eat an entire 7 on 7 in 15 minutes guys. That’s 7 patties, 7 American cheese slices, bread, sauce, and assorted vegetables. It’s a feat that deserves RESPECT.

  2. He’s one of the most upstanding, intelligent, and accomplished people I know. I’m proud to call him a friend.
