Other than his name and a few other facts like him being a rookie linebacker with the Seagulls this year and a former stand out player at Ritsumeikan University and the Japanese Nataional team, I don't know much about this guy... I'm talking about Tsukada Masayoshi.

From the little I've seem of Tsukada he seems to be a very quiet and introverted person. We work out together sometimes at Gyotoku's Golds Gym, and we usually ride in Shack's car to and from practice... Everytime I see him he doesn't say much. In the gym, he likes to work out by himself; And in Shack's car he is usually playing with his cell phone, or admiring the scenery through the window. He would describe himself as a guy who likes to keep to himself and not say much.....

Apparently the Tsukada that I have gotten to know over the past few months or so has been lying to everyone. According to the members of the Japanese National team the whole "Shy Boy" act is a bunch of BULL SHIT. I have yet to see him come out of his shell, but from what I hear he talks more than Nakamura coach(And if anyone knows Toshi, that is a whole lot of talking...).

Over these next few weeks I'll be trying to mess with him and get him to open up a little bit. I encourage everyone else who reads this blog to do the same. You can catch up with him at the Gyotoku Golds Gym or at Shack's house.... I'm not sure what number he's wearing this year, but be sure to keep an eye out for the Gyotoku "Fabulous Five's" rookie linebacker.
