Well a lot of better teams turned that game down on principle because of the MLK issue.

To Howards credit it put it to a vote by the players and they took it but to me that does take away from the "luster" so to speak from us playing in it.

Still it was a great win and an exciting game.

I played with RB Curtis Lipsey & RB Latrell Ware with the Bulls and they were both tremendous athletes.

Curtis has several opportunities to play Arena and Canadian football but had a new family here in Louisville.

He loves the game of football and really didnt care what level he was playing on he just loved to play.

Latrell was one of the most powerful RB's I have ever seen, he straight armed a guy all the way to the ground and pinned the guys helmet to the ground while he was running past him.
