Shayne Graham at Marshal's game

[IckeyShuffle]

I went to the Cincinnati Marshal's playoff game last night and sat in the 3rd row next to the Marshal's bench. This brand of arena ball is straight off the streets but a lot of entertainment for a Saturday night. The highlight was hangin' with Shayne Graham for a couple quarters. Watching him encourage the Marshal's from the bench, coaching the kicker and buying rounds of beers for dedicated, year-long Marshal's fans.

The only thing that made me nervous was that he kept jumping over the barriers between the stands and the bench talking to numerous people. All I could think of was "dear God, protect that golden right leg, we're gonna need that this year!!"

In a lull in action, I leaned over and said,

"Hey Shayne, how about we host another football home playoff game like this one come January?"

Shayne's response: "Oh Hell Yeah"

Its on, bring on training camp and our march to the playoffs, Who Dey!!
