Slaughter Wed Jan 06 2010

A "Sweet" Replay?

Not content to let the Bears steal the football thunder around town, the Chicago Slaughter have some big (indoor) gridiron news of their own, scheduling a press conference for tomorrow afternoon to announce the signing of a "marquee" player for the 2010 season. Head coach Steve McMichael will be joined by Indoor Football League Commissioner Tommy Benizio to unveil the Slaughter's "new offensive weapon" who is already set to wear No. 34 in this, the team's inaugural season in the IFL.

Hmmm...marquee name...offensive player...wearing No. 34. This might be a "sweet" announcement.

Is he in shape and ready to play though? About 4 yrs removed from his NFL and World football days right? Last I saw him at Walter's 10 yr anniversary of leaving us, Jarrod was rather plump. I guess his wife must be a great cook. And believe me I know plump when I see it (in the mirror everyday) ;)

He's been up in Toronto, playing CFL ball, until just recently. He left for undisclosed personal reasons (to play for Mongo?)
