On the map...


I've received text messages from all over the nation. People who had never heard of the city I moved to have heard about it over and over and over again recently. Why? Because our college football team was supposed to lose to Michigan, but instead we won. We made football history with a gigantic upset. This is a college town, signs were everywhere. This is just one of many - "Michi who? Way to go ASU" There were t-shirts made up and all over town the next day advertising the win. People still haven't stopped talking about it. We even made the cover of Sports Illustrated. The game this weekend has a sold out crowd.

Want in on a little known fact? The player who made the final play is soon to be part of the Graham family. He is engaged to Franklin's daughter.

I had a Franklin sighting my first day at lunch. I didn't speak with him, but I did see him in the flesh. I hear that is a rare occurance since he travels so often.
