The Heisman Trophy isn't the same as it use to be. What are the faults and what can be done in order to get the bronze figurine back to where it once was?

Don't be shy!

Billy,

Thanks for the comments you left on my wall. It's always a great feeling to know when others appreciate my writing.

As far as Kurt Warner, I couldn't agree with you more. He's a great guy and he's always been fun to watch in his career. He makes one of those great stories to success that people love to hear about. Thanks again!

There were people who believed in the Cardinals all along. There were people who didn't believe in them at all. No matter what you believed, we are all believing in the Arizona Cardinals now. If you have time, I'd love to know what you think. Thanks!

Here's my latest article as promised. Don't think it's one of my best, but should be a nice read. I'll keep you posted on my next two though. I plan on writing about Bob Stoops and Jeff Jags. Those should be pretty good. But take a look at this one and let me know what you think if you get a chance.

Yeah Billy, i was planning to ask you as well, I was going to add a blog section and since your articles are usually more humor related, I want you to be one of the main bloggers. Go there and and register and we can hammer out the details later.
