Logan Junior middle linebacker Joseph Mestre knew he had big footsteps to fill coming into the 2007 season. The Colts lost a tremendous player from last year in stud middle linebacker Fenuki Foketi who graduated, but knew they had a guy with tons of potential to replace him. Mestre is listed at 5 foot 10, weighs 205 pounds and has been playing football for seven years. He is an exceptional player who has a knack to come up and make the big hit on a ball carrier.

“The best thing about being linebacker is that I’m in the middle of the action and I get a lot of chances to lay someone out”, said Mestre.

The junior has desire for the game and just loves to be out there playing. He is a big component in the Logan defense and is vital to them in stopping the run. Mestre comes up and meets the running backs at or behind the line of scrimmage.

Director Peter Berg created a gem in "The Kingdom", starring Jamie Foxx, Chris Cooper, and Jennifer Garner.

In Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, terrorists attack a compound for foreign workers, killing over a hundred people, including Francis Manner, the FBI's lead agent in Saudi Arabia. Diplomacy concerning the bombing is slow, so Agent Ronald Fleury (Jamie Foxx) leads an elite team (Chris Cooper, Jennifer Garner) to a five‑day mission to Saudi Arabia to capture the bomber. Unfortunately, Saudi Arabia's bureacracy, protocol, and tension with the United States make the FBI team's expertise worthless without the cooperation of Saudi officials, who feel that the bombing is a local, not an international, affair. However, Fleury's crew gains the trust of Saudi Colonel Al‑Ghaz, who guides the team through the foreign politics to help them unlock the secrets of the bombing. The team is led to the killer's front door, but the journey there was one of chaos and havoc.

From wikipedia:Cassius Marcellus Clay, nicknamed "The Lion of Whitehall" (October 19, 1810 – July 22, 1903) was an abolitionist from Madison County, Kentucky, and a second cousin of famous politician Henry Clay.

He attended Transylvania University, and then graduated at Yale College in 1832; three years later was elected to the Kentucky General Assembly. He opposed the annexation of Texas yet served in the Mexican-American War.
