did i ever tell you that i worked with mark's dad? everyone called him Tex. very nice guy even though he was a big shot at the company. completely unassuming person. right when mark was drafted, his father had to take medical leave for a brain tumor. i left the company and the city before he came back to work so i dont know how his health is or if he ever came back. but it must have been tough for mark to start his career with the shadow of his father's health over him. hard thing for a 21 year old to handle.
