Feathers in girls’ hair. I just don’t understand that.

What do you look for in a girl?
A cutie with a great personality who can hang out with the guys, too. Someone that can make me smile and laugh, someone I can trust, someone I’m comfortable around, and someone I can watch the game with on Sunday afternoons.

I’ve been told my smile is my best feature but I’m not really sure

Did it hurt? When you fell from heaven ;)

What do girls like best about you?
That I’m always laughing and having a good time, there’s not enough time in life to not have a good time

If you could meet one celebrity, who would it be, and what would you say to them?
Kim Kardashian and, “Now that your getting divorced, marry me.”

What’s the best thing about being on the Colby football team?
Definitely the sense of family that I got from day 1.

What’s the best thing that your mom does for you?
Making the greatest Sunday dinners in the world. She’s the best.
