wasn't up to AFL Level and was cut...

This could happen to Eric Wallace...but I hope not. He seems so motivated.

It's not that I even want a US born, non footy trained athlete so much to
make it someday in the AFL..it's just as a (never Australian) American who has hunted
and pecked my way through 25 years of grabbing a game at midnight here or 1:00am
or 2:00am on TV or radio wherever I could find one here, it's grand to know someone else
from the US has caught the love for footy.

My favorite team, like forever, is the Hawthorn Hawks.

March 22nd 2013..new season...YAY
