Jake Long at the Lumber Yard
At around 3 this afternoon, Jake Long’s name will be called as the first pick in the NFL Draft. His already negotiated contract makes him the highest paid tackle before he even plays a down. And one time he helped load drywall into my Dodge Intrepid.
My roommate Joe and I were at Fingerle lumber, an Ann Arbor institution and constant source of dirty puns. We had to replace some drywall and a door at our house before our upcoming city inspection. The relative urgency of our inspection kept us from procuring a truck, and we were left with only my sedan to transport a full sheet of drywall and a pre-fab door to our house. This is where Jake Long came to our rescue. He was our assigned warehouse employee, and helped us strap the door to the top of my car and stomped the drywall in half so it would fit into the trunk. And now he’s the first overall pick in the NFL draft, and I’m writing about it for a blog. So, basically, what I’m saying is, “Can I borrow some money?”
