As you can see from Bobby's photo he had a little trouble figuring out how to put his uniform on. You don't even want to know how he wore his jock-strap. The reason Bob had so much trouble with his uniform is because he was so focused on another uniform. The one's worn by the cheerleaders. Most players felt like they had a good game when they scored a lot of points. Bob felt like he had a good game when he scored all the phone numbers from the cheerleaders.

&%$#  Don't tell me you don't remember!

Family status, kids, jobs, life highlights, years on parole, etc:
Waited until I was 30 to get married. Divorced 10 years later. 2 terrific boys, 16 and 18. Carter the 18 yr old was on the baseball team that won that national championship held in Joplin, so I got to go back to the old haunts. I was one of the first "boy stewardesses" hired at Southwest airlines and am still there, beats the hell out of going to work.(26 years) Need a job? Remember this line, " I love people and I love to travel."... Living with a wonderful woman that also has 2 kids so we have a sophomore, 2 juniors, and a senior in house. 

Started a food company about a dozen years ago and have won 27 national awards with my products. If you like texmex check out http://www.tuldys.com/. (shameless plug, sorry) My enchilada sauce is the best you will ever taste, promise. Graduated from UT (the big one) with a degree in advertising but never used it. My hobbies are cooking and watching my kids play sports, both play baseball, 16 yr old plays basketball too. The 18 yr old assures me he will be pitching somewhere in college next year, we'll see. Hope everyone is doing well and give me a call if you're ever in Austin.
