Sitting at a 3-7 record, the Arizona Outlaws are not having a stellar year. Similarly negative, kicker/punter Dean Jackson is having his worst kicking year since his rookie season. Ever since Dean Jackson was inexplicably made a team captain, after the abrupt trading of (currently on the Second Line) wide receiver Charlie Law a few seasons ago, he's had to talk to the media a lot and has gotten quite used to it. Here he is discussing the current state of things for himself and his team:
"Obviously we need to improve as a team, but I know we're getting there. The obvious issues are there, and everyone knows them. But people are ignoring the great things we're doing: Reg is having a monster season right now. Viggo and Bal are having outstanding rookie careers. I know 3-7 doesn't look bright, but rest easy Outlaws fans. We're fighting hard through these last 4 games. ... As for my play individually, I know I have to step it up. Not much else to say about that."
