There is a long list of reasons why "peculiar" is my adjective of choice when it comes to describing my friend Mike. Here's the short list from last weekend:
- After driving through the night to San Antonio with family in tow, Mike spent 4 hours buying and selling Final Four tickets on the street.
- He called his time spent watching basketball with his wife the "best 5 hours of our marriage." (Keep in mind they have shared a wedding, a honeymoon, and the birth of two children)
- After KU won the NCAA championship, he stayed up until 2:30am watching the exact same episode of Sports Center 4 consecutive times to see highlights and commentary.
- After the late night, he awoke at 7:00am the next morning to re-watch the entire basketball game.
- I missed the game. Mike felt compelled to give me a verbal replay of the event and literally started crying while describing the coach's locker room speech.
Like I said...that's the short list. Very short.
