Bee, When I first met Mike, I saw three of his Dbs (all on ttcs) run past and outrun his opponent's receiver to the endzone. They looked like they were lead blocking for the receiver. About a year and a half later, I was at a Buzzball tourney when I realized I was two players under the roster limit. I decided to add two more guys to my Kickoff coverage team just to be on the safe side. So I bought some men and proceeded to paint them up rather quickly. I made a decision to use my starting safeties (who were on extemely strong/fast rookie bases) to help shore-up my kicking team, but I would need backup safeties on ttcs to give me more flexability in zone coverage and they had to be fast enough to hawk down the opposition's receivers.

Mike came over when he saw me painting and asked me what I was doing, so I filled him in on the situation. I knew Mike was busy with running the tournament, but he still took the time to tweak two (first run) blue and white ttcs for my safeties. He wouldn't accept any payment, and thanks to Mike I was able to (in a timely manner) finish my extra guys and turn in my team for inspection.

What a guy!!!
