Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Something you don't see too often, a "positive/feel good" story about Randy Moss:
Ex-Vikings star Randy Moss shows up at Pelican Rapids graduation
A long journey for one Pelican Rapids High School student reached a milestone Friday night.
And former NFL star Randy Moss was there to see it.
Moss surprised many in Pelican Rapids by appearing at the graduation ceremony.
Moss’ reason for being there was to hand a high school diploma to senior Kassi Spier, said Pelican Rapids Public School District Superintendent Deb Wanek.
Spier developed a friendship with Moss during his playing days with the Minnesota Vikings.
Wanek said Spier battled leukemia in her youth. Then, in 2004, Spier’s father died in a car accident. And in 2013, Spier was diagnosed with a brain tumor.
Yet through it all, she managed to graduate, and Moss wasn’t going to miss seeing it.
“She’s had many struggles in her life, and he’s been there for her,” Wanek said. “He told her he’d be at her high school graduation.”

I know this is an old post but Lanny McDonald laughs at the idea of anyone else having the greatest beard in sports.
