Miami Dolphins sign heavy metal singer

Before I even begin, let me just get down on my knees and thank jeebus that football is back and the NFL season is set to start without any hitches.  Now I won’t have to find any new hobbies (knitting, bird watching?) to occupy my time on those gloriously crisp fall Sunday afternoons because there will be pigskins flying around and bringing me great joy.
Of course, as a Miami Dolphins fan, that joy is generally tempered with disappointment and a certain sarcastic numbness to all the humility.  (Whatever you do Miami, don’t you dare fuckin’ go sniffing around Brett Favre.  Nothing could be more unforgivable.)
Anyways, the Phins recently signed tackle Marc Colombo, which wouldn’t mean all that much except for the fact that he’s the singer in his very own heavy metal band.  Free Reign actually features two other football players (guards Leonard Davis and Cory Procter, who are both currently free agents.  Actually, Procter was on the Dolphins last year, so Free Reign came close to having a semi-reunion on South Beach.)
These guys make totally generic music, but, hey, it’s their freakin’ hobby, not their job.  They’re doing it because they’re having fun.  I’m down with that (and it gives me a reason to write about football and my Phins!).
