LOOKING BACK: Longtime bloggers will remember the buzz created on my blog in 2007 after I posted the CODY PAUL YouTube video …

It was back in 2006 that I posted a link on my blog (now Fred’s blog) about Cody Paul, aka The White Reggie Bush, aka The YouTube sensation. Well, ESPN The Magazine has done a very good article in its Jan. issue on Paul. You can read it HERE.

The bloggers back then, legends like “Mike The Clone”, “Plaid Lad” and “Dan”, had some interesting comments. The name Johnny Crespo even popped up. Remember that dude? Back then, part of the discussion was how every HS program was going to be recruiting Paul heavily. My joke was “Come to our school, Cody. I will be you some Skittles.” Anyway, I had no clue that Cody Paul wasn’t going to grow an inch since turning 9. But that’s how it happened. And now his football career is for the most part over.
