Frank. Take away the N, add an E, and you get FREAK. Want proof? Here you go:

AUBS!’ boyfriend, Frank Freak, was here last weekend. We had a delightful time Saturday night with SweetGuy’s sister, Singing Sally’s clan, DustMeister, Jacob B, and Magoo. We were sad to miss a few of our regulars in our midst, but that didn’t stop us from having fun with the Freak.
We first took him on in a 4 on 1 game of basketball… where we were allowed to foul him as much as we wanted.
He won.
Later after a game of H-O-R-S-E that mostly showed off how woefully bad at basketball most of us are, someone challenged the Freak to jump over AUBS! and score a basket. It took him a few tries, but of course he did it.
Here’s what I’d like to say about the Freak. There’s something I admire about him far greater than his athletic ability. It’s his attitude and humbleness. Amidst our 4 on 1 game where we were all pummeling him, not metaphorically pummeling – I’m talking physically smacking him, and smack-talking and enthusiastically cheering every score of our own, he just took the ball and scored, always with a smile on his face. And, then did it again. And, again. In the end, when he won, he just smiled and handed the ball back.
And, during the game of H-O-R-S-E, he could have SO EASILY just picked us all off one by one. I mean the difference between his talent and all the others of us playing was gigantic. But, rather than picking us off, he took preposterous shot after preposterous shot… missing most, thus not putting any pressure on the person that followed him.
If I was a mentor, I would tell athletes to act EXACTLY like the Freak.
And, next time we play 4 on 1, I propose we tie the Freak’s left hand behind his back. No, I’m not kidding. And, yes, I think he’ll win.
If so, then we shall tie both hands behind his back. And, we still get to foul him.
