Isaiah Dupree missed 4 games with a hamstring. He came back and put up 26.3 points.

The ledger, after his first season: 1,995 yards, seven scores.

Bitter Lake, Idaho is where he is from. He is thirty-two. Around the building he is popular in a way that does not show up anywhere useful. Nobody planned any of it. He was the younger brother of a player nobody in this league remembers.

The club is 9-4. Cyrus Boyce is new. The contract runs out in the spring.

One more thing: he will not step on the painted logo at midfield.
