Okay...I thought that his nickname was a little more known than what it was, but Colin would call him "Semi" all the time which was an approptiate moniker if you have ever meet his dad.

My father and I used to chat with Semi all the time when Colin played and he was a great guy!!

I remember seeing Colin driving around in a brand new Pontiac Firebird in those days. What did old Semi do for a living?
