  1. PRAISE the LORD! After losing to an OT last week I had lost hope man. Think he has been nominated like 4 weeks in a row maybe. I voted like 250 times, I couldn’t take it anymo’ lol

  2. Gotta say that I have been VERY impressed with this RC class, a lot of people were not that excited about this class after the monster 2012 class, but there are quite a few very good rookies doing amazing things on the field every week! So Surpassed my expectations!!! Which is great for collectors!
