This Year's Brush With Greatness

It's no secret that we here at the CGB love us some Marshawn.  He is, after all, a fresh of breath air. 

And you know what?  We even got to talk to him once.  As a matter of fact, that was a year and a day ago.  So guess what?  Marshawn was online after minicamp, again.

Note: all screennames edited to protect the innocent.  Or in the case of TwistNHook, the guilty.

And look at how cute I am with my stupid plumber head poking out of the wind up sock! I am the cutest invincible shoe rider ever! Mario! Mario! He's in the ULTRA green SHOOEEE!
