ONE COOL CLASSMATE
So a friend of mine from way back was on tv Saturday. I recognized him easily though we haven't spoken since our SIU days.
You know, what's funny is that I can remember our last conversation. It was in front of Lawson Hall at the end of the school year just before our senior year. I was going to Summer
school and he was going to work in St. Louis. For a guy who had horses and liked athletes. That's how an SIU football player got the job.
Evidently he learned a lot more than I did that Summer.
Because he is a co-owner of the horse Super Saver. Winner of the 136th Kentucky Derby!
When he was interviewed by Bob Costas on tv, he thanked God for the bringing him the victory. Thataboy, Kenny!
He's right up there with Kurt Warner and Albert Pujols to me now. Big time winners who give glory to God first. The only difference--I went to high school and college with Mr. Troutt.
