My Tallest BOTW

I'm assuming he'll be my tallest BOTW ever. I guess you never know, but at 6'9," I think saying he'll be the tallest is pretty safe. Who is this tall boyfriend you wonder?

Mark "Mad Dog" Madsen

Mark (January 28th, 1976) is a forward for the Minnesota Timberwolves. (Don't ask me what that means. I understand in other sports when you have offense and defense, but 'forward' is beyond me. Does that mean that he tries to move the ball forward toward the net? But I guess it doesn't really matter cuz like any of you know either.) He's not the greatest player (so he hasn't played that much in the past), but he has heart, and the new coach recognizes that. The coach says Mark brings something to the team and it rubs off onto the other players.

I first noticed Mark at a game when he was always the first off the bench to give the other players a pat on the back. He's always encouraging the other players. Maybe that's why he's the Timberwolves' representative to the NBA people. Other players, fans, everyone loves him. Mark's just a cleancut, all-around nice guy.

Unfortunately, being a cleancut all-around nice guy generally means one thing. He's Mormon. He's very devout, which is admirable, I just really wish he was devoutly Christian. He goes to church every Sunday he possibly can (it greatly bothers him that he has to play games on Sundays), one of his favorite hymns is 'Be Still My Soul' (which I love), he loves the Scriptures (I just wish he would leave the Book of Mormon out), he did a two-year missionary stint in Spain right out of high school, and he tries to witness to other players. Oh! If only that dedication was to the Truth! He could be perfect! (Except that he's 6'9." While I love tall, that's gigundo.)

Conversion is always possible, right? :)
