Brett Hull went to my old school. Lots of CFL players came out of my current school, like Paris Jackson, but I doubt most of you Americans would give a fuck about the CFL.

yeah he won this years footlocker. i graduated in 05 but i happened upon footlocker on tv and decided to watch it. i used to be real deep in running stats and whatnot, but i got out of it once i graduated. i thought i would be faster and run in college, but shit turned out that im 6'0" and 190 pounds so, there went my illustrious distance running career.

Jamie skeen, a junior at wake forest. From what I heard he really isn't smart enough to go to wake forest and cheated all through high school and now he got caught cheating there and didn't play this year.

If anyone else did it their ass would probably be kicked out of wake.
