He'll probably never see the field but I don't think it matters to him.

It's pretty long so don't click if you don't like longer articles.

That's outstanding.

We had a similar situation a few years back in Josh Amstutz.

Here's hoping Mr. Reichardt sees much action on the field this season.

Don't forget Mark Dodge, former starting MLB, who was in the Pentagon when the plane hit it on September 11th as a member of the Old Guard.

So this means that if you don't like UF, you don't like the troops and America.

I never said I didn't like UF. I just don't want them to win on the 8th.
