    Interview With Former NFL Player Philip Stambaugh
    Sep 14 2021

    Philip played 4 seasons of professional football with many stops along the way with teams in the NFL and NFL Europe.  He, like many, was a multi-sport athlete growing up, participating in baseball and wrestling in addition to football.  He attended Lehigh University in part because they would allow him to play two sports, as well as the fact that it was close to home.  Coming out of college the same year as Tom Brady, Philip was also overlooked and signed as an unrestricted free agent with the Buffalo Bills.  Post career, he dove head-first into coaching which is a passion he received from his dad, who is also a coach.  He also established himself in the business world starting a few companies with his dad as well.  For more on Philip, follow the links below.

    Interview With Former CFL Great, and Current CFLPA President Solomon Elimimian
    May 10 2021
    Solomon had an outstanding 10 year career in the CFL playing for the BC Lions and Saskatchewan Roughriders. Baseball was his first love as a sport, but football is where he would make a name for himself. He was not highly recruited out of high school, but went to the University of Hawaii where he developed into a star. He left as the schools all-time leader in tackles. Despite his success, he didn't get much attention from the NFL. He trained for months hoping for an opportunity. That opportunity came from the CFL, a league which he had no idea about. CFL coaching legend Wally Buono gave him a shot, even though it took two workouts to do it. He made an impression right away, winning the leagues Rookie of the Year award in his first season. He went on to win many awards, as well as a Grey Cup Championship in a memorable 2011 season. He's now still involved in the game, serving as the President of the CFL Players Association, and working towards a return to the field for this season.
