timeline_event

texture · boyhood-adolescence, B.S.

  • When: grade school through high-school junior year
  • What: A two-way fullback / outside-linebacker, 230 lbs and a 4.4 40-yard dash in 7th grade, told by every coach he was a Division-1 lock — football his one gift and second love besides substances. The "Bimulator" head (B.I.M., "Big Indestructible Moron"), huge and square, on which teammates broke objects.
