Well, this doesn't exactly fit in on a CAOS website, but I felt the need to post it anyway.
Joe Odom, a graduate of CM High School in Bethalto, IL, and a track and football teammate of mine was selected in the 6th round of the NFL draft (191st overall pick). He went from CM to Purdue to the Chicago Bears.
I know Joe won't see this here, but congrats Joe and good luck in Chicago. :)

I hope to see Joe doing the Super Bowl Shuffle in January.
"We are the Bears Shufflin' Crew
Shufflin' on down, doin' it for you.
We're so bad we know we're good.
Blowin' your mind like we knew we would.
You know we're just struttin' for fun
Struttin' our stuff for everyone.
We're not here to start not trouble.
We're just here to do the Super Bowl Shuffle."
Okay, as much as I love the Chicago Bears, I can't listen to that song more than once in a row without going crazy :)
Good luck to Joe and the entire team in their new and improved (WeHaven'tSoldOutSoWeDon'tHaveACompanyNameHere) Soldier Field!
