Do you know any sport stars?
I also know Mladen Krstajic & Savo Milosevic - I grew up around them when I was smaller, and they are both now Serbian National Team representatives. |

Cal Ripkin Jr. and Vi Ripkin, both are major sponsors of the Boys and Girls Club in Maryland and I've met them too many times to count, lo.

That's awesome Shwa, have you spoken to them on many occasions? If so, what kind of people are they?
Personally I don't know any sports stars, a lot of them have lived decently close to my area, but dont know any of them personally. |

Steve Smith, the former Blackhawks defenseman, used to live right next door to my best friend, so I met him a couple times, and actually I've been in his house when I was helping my friend babysit his kids.
Jeff Sluman and Jim Thome live nearby, but I've never met them. |

Back in the day I'd hang out with the Fresno Falcons ECHL (at the time they were WCHL) team after games. They'd go to places like TGI Fridays or Applebees or the Old Fresno Haufbrau to drink. They were all really cool guys, they're all star goalie Jeff "Fergie" Ferguson was actually one of my first Hockey Coaches.

I suppose they don't actually qualify as "sport stars" necessarily, but I'm friends with world champion martial artist William Cornell and have also sparred quite a few rounds with former pro basketball player Danny Jones. I was the only person in the karate studio with long enough legs to be able to kick Danny in the face, and I'll never forget the expression on his face the first time I did that
