According to the Indianapolis Colts website, I do.

I never knew people in the land of the red-white-and-blue were speaking Russian in stead of Dutch.

I guess Jim Kubiak and Joey Getherall will be very confused now, thinking Amsterdam is in Russia...

Wow, despite the bad grammatics, the Colts site can really be read in Dutch.
Amazing!

MIJB, How did Getherall do this year?

I don't know. Did he return to the NFLEL this spring?

Getherall was the #3 receiver (on a 3 WR system) for the Admirals in 2002, with Marcus Knight (now Oakland's #3 WR) being the #1 by far and All-NFLEL tight end Ryan Collins also getting a lot of atention from Kevin Daft.

I'm not sure where he was in the spring. I don't think he's on an NFL roster anymore. He was a tough tough football player at ND. He caught everything and in spite of being very small, he frequently made gutsy catches over the middle. I don't think he really ever has had the makings of a pro receiver, but he certainly was going to give it a try.

Getherall is listed on the Colts roster at their website (that's why I named him in the first place!), though their own info is confusing.

They write he was cut on June 5th when Kubiak was signed, but on June 15th he was on the roster when Stokley was signed...

I think he has been cut. They may not have updated their roster.

Jim Kubiak is a stud!!! At least he was for the AFL Dallas Desperados this year. Threw something like 97 touchdowns and 4800 yards, which are both AFL records. Simply amazing...

Any relation to Gary Kubiak?:D

Not so far as I know, though I have asked that question myself. No mention of it in his player bio, so I guess not...
