In the last two days, I've been in the presence of two former starting Huskers. On Friday, I decided to grab a bite to eat after I dropped Zach off at Beta, and get some food at Mr. Goodcents. As I'm sitting there eating my sub, no other person than Joe Dailey and his gf sit down right next to me to enjoy theirs. Now, if it would've been anyone else on the team, I would've been ecstatic. But I think by him sitting there, it might have actually brought me down for the day... then last night, I went to Ponec's graduation party. Good party all around. I didn't think I would know anyone there to talk to, but I did find some people and it turned out OK. The "highlight" of the night (besides talkin' to John), was talkin' to John's old high school buddy Colin Shockey (who just happened to play center field for us last year). What a great guy. I've seen him on the field a bunch, but never really sat down and talked to him. Him and I hung around each other for a good portion of the night just talkin' about baseball and the MVC. This might have been the greatest surge of ex-Husker presence that I've ever seen in a two day span.
