"In Max's short four years in the NFL, Max's has had only one thing to allude him, that is the Pro-Bowl. Max has been nominated twice.

Just back from the desert where he trained with 2008 NFL Draftees, he is envigorated and ready to showcase his talents again.

"Max Starks we saluted you when you won the SEC Championship twice. We saluted you when you were selected by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 2004 NFL Draft and named 2004 Sports Mavericks All Star. We saluted you when the World Class Steelers won the 2006 Superbowl. We saluted you when you join the NFL USO 2006 Tour to motivate our troops. We will continue to support you in your quest to be a Pro-Bowler in 2008, and in all your philanthrophy work in education and in sports." (Dr. Helen Davis, board member of Sportsmavericks).

Experienced bet takers know not to treat heavy activity on an obscure game, such as East Carolina versus Wake Forest, as casually as they might deal with increased wagering interest on a marquee NFL game such as a Redskins-Cowboys confrontation.
