After a trying season on and off of the field, the Legends finished in a classic come from behind win last night. It was a great way to end to season with just less than 1500 energized fans at the Civic Center.

We have had great meetings down the stretch with the Mayors Office, CVB, Chamber, Ad agencies and others who will help market, advertise and prepare us for 2009 season. Our league has a full page ad in the Professional Football Hall of Fame Guide, positioning us in the greatest game in town.

It was a joy to have Michael Doss, McKinley, OSU National champion Captain and NFL great, present Rashan Hall with an award for his last Legends game and his accomplishments at half time. Fans came from everywhere to speak with and get autographs by Michael and Rashan during and after the game.

We have experienced the best and worst of times, winning the championship in 2006 and finishing last place in our conference in 2008. 2009 promises to be a much better year. We are surrounded by football talent in our area. Our strategy was to bring in the best local talent. We know arena football is faster, more physical cause no out of bounds and a slightly different game. We knew our local guys would need to adjust and we would probably go through a learning curve, which many did. With local guys like Brinson, Murphy, Smith, McClain and Rodriquez getting to know the game better, sprinkled with a few outside greats like McMullen and Mason we look to be very competitive again in 2009. We have worked very hard to overcome many obstacles to get to this point and are proud of our accomplishments finishing with 3 wins - 2 losses in our last five games, and losing 6 games within seven points.
