Cook Meets One of His Favorite Players

My good friend Robert Cook and I had a great conversation with a former Rebel great and good friend of mine Stewart Patridge at the Library Bar and Grill. Patridge who played quarterback from the Rebels is a former Pillow Academy great. Cook approached Patridge about his experience in the Alabama game, when he came in to play because Paul Head was sick. It was great to see Robert Cook finally converse with one of his childhood heroes. For those of you that do not know Stewart, he is a great guy and is always willing to talk about his football days at Ole Miss. Patridge is now in pharmaceutical sales in North Mississippi. Stewart was in town to visit his friend and current Houston Texan Todd Wade. Wade appeared to grow even more since the last time I saw him. Long live #1.
