Believe it or not, I did. When I was a youngster, Drew Bledsoe was a rookie and I thought he was the best QB in the history of the NFL. For a few summers in a row, I went to training camp with my dad at Bryant College in Rhode Island. I got to meet Bledsoe briefly and get a bunch of autographs. He was one hell of a nice guy, that's for sure.

Yes.

I was a ball boy for the NY cosmos and met Pele many times but was too young to appreciate it, I was under 10. As a teenager fan I have had tons of players I rooted for but none I idolized like Pele
