My Son -- Trying Out for the Iowa Barnstormers!
He's 6'-4" and weighs a "hundred and nothin'..." -- but Jimmy Small '08, AKA "Jimmy Football" is going to be at this Saturday's Iowa Barnstormers open tryouts -- looking to earn a roster spot on their Indoor Football League team.
Now, trust me -- this former member of Notre Dame's Irish Guard has as much chance as a guy named RUDY of making a football team -- let alone the Barnstormers...
WAIT -- RUDY DID MAKE A TEAM!
You can see -- Jimmy (he's the President of NASCAR's Iowa Speedway) -- and the Iowa Barnstormers are having some fun with this!
Could their be a "Jimmy Football" ESPN 30 for 30 film in the works?
