Amidst searching the web for jobs, trying to find dog breeds that fit my style, and just general playing around on the internet, I did a search for "Brendan Beal" on Google. Now I have done this plenty of times in the past and it has mostly come up with the same results. Besides my champion wrestling status, involvement with an old internship at FSU, and a mention on someone's blog or something, I didn't have many genuine hits. It seems now, however, that I have been all but obliterated from a Google search. This is all thanks to Brendan Beal from New Jersey.
Apparently, this guy stole my name, played a little football at Roxbury High School, ran the 40 in 4.55 seconds, and now a ton of top college teams want him to play for them. This is great for him sure, but did he ever think of the consequences of getting hundreds of tackles during games??
Now that "Mr. Beal" is such a hot shot you barely even find a mention of the real me on a Google search. Nothing but pages and pages of "Football prospect has a 4.3 grade point average" and "Beal to look at Notre Dame this weekend". Sheesh. I had above a 4.3 grade point average and no one was putting me in all the big web sites.
Oh well, I guess I'll just have to make my mark elsewhere and regain the "Most Mentions of Brendan Beal on the Internet" award. Maybe I could start robbing banks...

Now don't you wish you'd learned to kick a football like I asked you to????? Funny, my whole thing is to stay out of googledom. I would prefer total anonimity (just in case someone is looking to rub me out).
Also, if it's any consolation, you're 100 times better looking than he is.
I think the last two comments are my mom...or an ex-kicker from Kathleen High School that has a crush on me. hmmmm...
