Akselsen has a unique plan for life after football. Professional greyhound racer. He's always had a love for the breed and wants to pursue that passion whenever he hangs up the helmet.
The greyhound is a magnificent beast that is well tuned for life on the track. It was originally bred for coursing, a hunting technique that uses a dog's keen eyesight to track and hunt, as opposed to scent. They are very slender with tight, sinewy muscle.The average male height and weight are 2'5" and 72 pounds. We only care about male racing dogs here at Akselsen Greyhound Gremlins. Yes, that's the team name. No, it's actually pretty cool, not dumb.
Anyway, a greyhound averages about 40 mph on race day, and can reach a top speed of 43 mph. Blazing fast.
I'm sure you want to hear about the business proposal though. We will have several themed days for each race. Standard race day, the theme is greyhound racing. Valentine's day is a love theme and all dogs must be painted red with the dirt/grass field painted pink. We will have an Irish heritage day. Only greyhounds of provable Irish heritage are allowed to race, and must be sauced up with a pint of the black stuff. THere are other themes but I will reveal them later. All you need to know is that Akselsen Greyhound Gremlins will be the preeminent greyhound racing team and track. It's open for all ages, and since we are located on a Native American reservation, the gambling and alcohol restrictions are lifted.
