I'm kind-of thinking it might hurt, just a little bit, when a brute 20 lbs (but really probably 30 lbs) heavier tries to knock your block off. Kudos to Armanti for hanging onto the football!

I can truthfully say that I have NEVER watched the NFL Draft...until this year. For the past 2 days I have been glued to espn to hopefully be a first hand witness to the fateful news of our star kids.

I'm not exactly a pro football kind-of fan but I would have been ecstatic if at least one of our boys were drafted by the Panthers or the Skins. Oh well, there's certainly nothing wrong with Tampa Bay because they are definitely very wise.

The quotable quote: "Appalachian State has made the most of its regular television appearances and media exposure in its three-year national championship run. The Mountaineers scored big again by recruiting even more of their trademark speed."
