During the Sox playoff run in 2003, I got a call during one of the ALCS games from my grandfather who was at the game. Says he's sitting next to someone who wants to talk to me and the someone ended up being Ted Johnson, 'Ol No Neck himself calling to give me tips about playing linebacker in high school. Says " always follow the guards, they'll take you to the play". Always thought it was good advice for a young player...If it was possible, I'd pay him back with any advice I could give him. Maybe something like "Hey Ted, when someone asks which one of your former teammates has the ugliest wife...I think you should not answer. And if your mashed up brain has to give an answer...how bout not saying the biggest and baddest motherfucker on the team?" Thats pretty good right? Good advice? Cause when I went on twitter earlier and saw this tweet from Wilfork himself I figured someone was in serious fucking trouble. Have fun dealing with this Ted and thanks again for the advice!
