SSI Football: Pre-Season All Fire-Cracker Team!

Happy 4th of July weekend to everybody! I wanted to put my pre-season Fire-Cracker team together here over the holiday. The upcoming season will feel even closer by next week! I hope this generates some conversation about the season.

Fall camp starts soon on August 10th! Excited to get going on the 2026 season. Stay tuned for my announcement of my podcast debuting very soon.
