September 9, 200718 yr Nick Turnbull, safety for the falcons Mike Napoli, Catcher LAAA My brother was just telling me last weekend about a time he went to a big party at Napoli's house and Napoli was just completely roasted and he was dancing with about 5 chicks at the same time. Good times. :lol I was probably there. As I've mentioned in other threads, I grew up with Napoli and his family. He was always the fat, quiet, extremely athletic kid in middle school and party animal later on. Cool kid though. I also knew Nick Turnbull well, we went to middle school together. Mr. GQ. If he doesn't make it as a football player he has a future as a male model. BTW, you might not consider this guy "famous" bobbob, but a lot of people in my group did.He went to your High School. His name was Neil Mayo. I used to play semi pro beach volleyball and club circuit indoor volleyball and Neil was one of the best. He was awesome. He wasn't asgood as the Dipietro brothers out of Ft. Lauderdale (who went on to play in the Olympics against some of the best in the world) at the time, but he was only 5'11'' - 6' tall and was still among the best in the state.
