First,The Revs have announced their '08 coaching staff which will feature Coach D taking over the reigns from Scott Veith. Coach D has an extensive background in indoor football having played in three different leagues. It's his motivational skills and hard working mentality which should surely help the Revs this season, and don't forget he is a true grid iron gladiator never wearing ANY pads except a helmet.  Taking over the offense is Al Forsythe who was part of the staff of the Outlaws who had back to back winning seasons and playoff appearances in their first two years. Moe Cooper has an extensive playing and coaching resume and last season was the Head Coach/Offensive Coordinator for the Summit County Rumble. Tom Tamburri will lead the special teams after spending time as a semi-pro football coach. Also coming in from Lehigh Valley is Trev Marcks who will be coaching the defensive line. Coming in to the coach the offensive side of the  line is former USFL player Mike McClearn. Strength and Conditioning will be head by Grant Neary who is the owner and director of Power Hitter Sports Performence.

Second, the Revs have announced that their home games will feature the "Rev It Up Girls" who will be lead by former NFL cheerleader Miranda Lobs.Also on the prowl are the "Junior Rev It Up Girls". I know for one I can't wait to see their halftime moves!

Third, well now it's time for some news focused on the future! The CIFL has announced their '08 schedule and the Revolution will start their third campaign off against an '07 playoff team in the Miami Valley Silverbacks. Before their home opener the Revs will suit up against the Silverbacks, Saginaw Sting, Lehigh Valley Outlaws, and CIFL champions Rochester Raiders. The home opener is against the Tide who reside in Chesapeake. 

Finally, January 20th is the last open tryout for the Revs. Visit the teams official website  for additional information!

While in Seattle we drove to Everett and watched an interesting game between the Everett Hawks and Tri-cities with my husband and brother-in-law. With only 12 seconds left and trailing behind 39-43, Everett scored a touchdown thus winning the game 45-43. Little did we know that this was going to be the last year for the Everett Hawks. 

This is my second indoor football game, the first was held in Biloxi when my husband and I just started dating in 2000.

Ricky Appiah WR/DB, Leroy Brooks WR/DB, Colin Stoetzel OL/DL and Kerry Taylor TE/DE are all on the Surge's roster.

We just published a roster of the 1971 UMass team. One of the stars of that team, Steve Schubert is managing partner of the Manchester Wolves Indoor Football Team.
