It was last night and I was wrapping up some loose ends and doing everything but fishing when last year’s champion Dave Burnie showed up at my door. He was chatting with my wife about his days in Cape Cod Hospital after knee surgery on her floor and had some paperwork in his hand. I froze for a moment not knowing what to do next??? I was thinking about asking for his autograph, kicking him the knee cap, and/or running away all at once but luckily I did not take off. I did not run because he was in my house and because I wanted that paperwork that he had in his hand. I wanted his entry fee because I wanted team “Red Nun” in again because I want the opportunity to take down the champs.
I felt as if I was accepting a check and a handshake from Kobe, A-Rod, or one of the Sedin brothers. It felt so wrong but so good and to allow someone who is like A-Rod into my house and not flip out was a cathartic experience for me and for my children and everyone else’s children. I actually introduced D. Burnie to my 6 and 8 year old kids telling them that he was last year’s HeadHunt champion. Dave quickly corrected me telling my kids and I that he is still the current champion and not just last year’s champion. He is right of course but so is Isaiah Thomas every now and then I guess.
Okay, I need to go set up some crap on the boat, meet up with On the Water for some stuff, and pick up the trophies. Dave was able to see some of the sweet Fin Or rod and reels that Goose Hummock donated for prizes as I wanted to see and feel what will never be in hands again.
Just received entry stuff for Reelax’n out of Arlington MA. I am not even sure where that is but welcome aboard.
