Only mentioning this bc this guy is a huge LSU fan, but Brandon McCarthy - who just signed a 4 year contract with the Dodgers.

Met him on a LSU Baseball message board back in 2001 or 2002. He was pitching in JUCO and wanted to pitch for LSU, and I connected him with a friend of mine who was playing at the time.

He is a great guy, super witty and cerebral. Real mature for his age, I remember. Smoke Laval told him that his rotation was set, so he signed with the White Sox. Crashed at my house a couple times and we came down for games.

We brought a group of our Little League kids to a Rangers game a few years ago, when he was pitching for Oakland - and he signed a few balls and made a big impression.

Rarely talk to him these days, but he is known as one of the best Twitter personalities in MLB. He claims to have eaten 70 chicken McNuggets in one sitting.

Anyway, not as glorious as knowing a porn star, but worth sharing...
