I had an awesome mailday today. My dad told me on Wednesday that I got something from Minnesota. I didn't have a clue what it was until I realized it might be a repsonse from Fred Hoiberg (my second all-time favorite basketball player next to Todd Fuller). I sent him a get-well letter and autograph request almost two months ago and I figured he never got it since he never replied. Well, turns out it was from him and he actually sent me back my stuff (sorry Dirk, but Fred's got more class than you, card and stamp thief).

Anyway, Fred Hoiberg had offseason heart surgery, cut by the Timberwolves, and has been travelling with the team as an assistant. He also decided not to make a comeback to the NBA this season because of his pacemaker. He answered the 5 questions I sent him:
