1999 was your first year. You’re fast forward 24 years and you’re still here in Shreveport, just if you can in a little bit of time, what has this experience meant to you.

As the year winds down every year you say goodbye to the players who are aging out. What is that like?
((Jason Campbell))
It’s tough, especially you got Steele this year he’s been around here for for a while you know, about to play his 200th game. It is hard but at the same time you know it’s so nice to see them go move on and do great things.
