EPISODE SUMMARY
Please pardon the audio difficulties. In this episode, Dave, Fran and Greg, on a Mother's Day in Japan, sit down to talk spring football with the Arena Football League Ponzi scheme beginning its implosion, and the United Football League seemingly finding a small hard core audience on network television. They also talk about the Canadian game as the fate of Chad Kelly in Toronto has been decided by the Argos, as well as the Japanese game with the ass whipping by the KG Fighters by the Southern Oregon Raiders in a college football friendly. Lastly they also talk AHL hockey, women's basketball, and much more.

Both are avid armchair sports historians and sports simulation enthusiasts, who, despite the vastness of geography, have found a way to leverage technology to help keep the games they love truly alive, both on the screen and on the internet airwaves.
In addition to Dave and Greg, From the 55 Yardline also features veteran journalist and contributor Fran Stuchbury, of https://OurSportsCentral.com, where he writes extensively on the happenings in minor league sports.
