(S29) PT 4 - Statues

[zakkyjohns]

For me, I have only been on the New York Silverbacks for just over 1 full season and I haven't dedicated the time to fully grasping the history this team has in regards to players who can be seen as the face of the franchise. While one day I can only hope Tugg Speedman will be enshrined in the big apple, I think for now the easy answer for me is Jackson Kingston. Jackson has been a consistent presence on the field, in the locker, and out in the public for years repping the Silverbacks and the city of New York. He is a true leader in every facet of the word and has helped Tugg become a better wide receiver. I can't think of anyone more deserving or dominant for the Silverbacks to be enshrined out front of the stadium. So even though it's early, Kingston is certainly building onto his legacy this year and the many seasons to come in New York.

Just a small bonus, but I think Tugg Speedman should get enshrined in London for the Royals as he was truly a beloved player there and absolutely balled out. He set records and was a part of two memorable teams that made it to the playoffs, with an unfortunate heartbreaking ultimini loss. Tugg was a fan favorite in every sense of the word for that team and it would go a long way.
