Running it. I want to run somebody over.
3. Any chance of staying for your senior season?
Yeah.
4. Who wins an arm wrestling match, you or Brigham Harwell?
It would be a tie. (You can't say that). Ok, I'll win.
5. Who is the bigger eater on the team?
Probably Sonny (Tevaga) or one of the o-line guys.
6. How many Diddy Reese cookies can you eat?
Haven't really tried, but 10. I'm not a big cookie guy.
7. Favorite Westwood restaurant?
Gushi
8. What did you listen to before a game?
Young Jeezy
9. Utlimate cheeseburger or macho burrito?
Ultimate cheeseburger

Brian,

Great idea. It puts a real person behind the name and number.

VB said:

That was cool. But the answers were so short. Were you chasing him in your little red crocks while he was heading to the locker room, Brian? Was he disturbed by your personal questions? LOL

This was a terrific idea Brian. Also, you couldn't have started it off with a better person! I Brian Price...

Danny Farmer said:

"...no one cares"


Speak for yourself, Anon. UB and OB are big eaters?!? FASCINATING!!

bz said:

vb... you don't know what a Diddy Reese is? Did you go to UCLA?

Michael Fey said:

bz - I'm going to guess that is a big fat NO.

But he is UCLA's #1 Superfan, just ask him...or his Dad (both big eaters, I hear). BURRRRRPPP!!

VB - Blogging is your thing? What blog? I think you mean commenting...

This is much better than reports about the student store. Please do this for BBall too.

HomeBru said:

EVERYONE knows what Diddy Reese is. A better question is what the heck is a Big n' Rich?

Dohn,
Love the getting to know feature!

Good stuff Brian, thanks.

Heh, I have no idea what a Diddy Reese cookie is and, yes, I did get a degree from UCLA.

VB, "janet reno"! whoa, man, please.

VB said:

Isn't Diddy Reese the little monkey from Donkey Kong? Or is it one of the Backstreet Boys?

UB (Ultimate Bruin) Author Profile Page said:

I graduated from UCLA and don't know what a Diddy riese is until I researched the issue (actually PB researched it). Apparently, they have been serving Westwood since 1983 . . . Since I graudated in 1979, my ignorance is understandable.

Anyone else wish VB would spend his time working on his lame website instead of answering questions? Let's face it.... ultimatebruin.com is anything but ultimate.

Gushi Rules!

Great fluff stuff, Brian!

Just one more thing... If you could include any nicknames the "profile" player has acquired, and how they got them, that'd be great!

GOOOOO BRUINS!!

I graduated in 1963. So, tell me more about these basketball championships won by Wooden. I didn't think he was all that great when I was there.

Anonymous said:

Loved it Brian, thanks! My Diddy Reese question got asked, niceeee. And who are these losers who dont know what Diddy Reese is. Did you guys EVER walk around in Westwood? Clearly you didnt, otherwise you wouldve seen the line of 40 people on Broxton. Get a life VB, UB, and whatever else you guys are.

VB said:

Did it ever occur to you that you could attend UCLA and not necessarily live on campus?

And I'm glad you keep visiting UltimateBruin.com. Keep going! I'll have it updated soon!

Sarah Palin said:

Perfect answer, VB!!

Anonymous said:

It also occurred to me that you're a loser who apparently NEVER drove through Westwood. Way to hit the library and run home to have lunch with mom. Well, at least you've got Sarah Palin behind you...
