Hildo may be the most memorable for some of you. But Wayne was the man not only for the Flames but in the NFL. We've mentioned it before on here, but if you ever played Tecmo Bowl he was unstoppable on that game. I bumped into him at Homecoming two years ago and hope to do so again for the ceremony. Great guy.

I plan on being in attendance again this year as well. It was a great ceremony last season watching my teammate Bailey Alston get inducted. This year I will be there to support my fellow LFSN co-worker and friend Matt Hildebrand. Also it will be nice to catch up with my old friends Delethia Quarles and Wayne Haddix.

Maybe Mike can give Hildebrand some love on the football broadcast

Proofread before you push send Jeff. Coach Matthews?

Man, Matt has never been a heavyweight but he looks almost too skinny now.

He said Coach Matthew. As in Coach Matthew Hildebrand.

Did I miss their recognition at the football game?

It was at halftime. And may as well have missed it. PA left a little to be desired.
