Professional career

Phelan was drafted by the New England Patriots in the fourth round (108th overall pick) in the 1985 NFL Draft. A knee injury prematurely cut short his professional career.[2]
Personal life

A graduate of the Boston College class of 1985, Phelan currently works in Boston for RR Donnelley as Senior Vice President.[3] He is the cousin of professional soccer player Pat Phelan.[4] He currently resides in Walpole, Massachusetts.

The Calgary Stampede Rodeo is akin to the Super Bowl in terms of being a big deal to Albertans. Over a million people go, and if you happen to be north of the border or can get the CBC they do tons of coverage.

Danne D - are you affiliated with the PCC? I was a member there for several years. Gave it up because of a combination of work and knee and back problems.

I rarely get to see Jags games around here, and they've been so horrible, that when I get a chance to watch them last night, I elected to watch soccer, and surprise, they won!.

@Danne, nope, San Fran has the big yellow stripe going right down the jagged edge of centerfield. Probably due to the lame configuration of the fence & stands.

Danne D:

single
A one-point score. The kicking team scores a single when the ball is punted, drop kicked, or place kicked into the receiving team's end zone (without scoring a field goal or hitting the goal post) and the receiving team fails to run or kick the ball back into the field of play. The single also is scored if the kick goes out of bounds in the end zone, except on a kickoff. On a kickoff, the single is scored only if the ball stays inbounds and is not run out of the zone, or if the defence puts the ball out of bounds in the end zone.
