Traveled to "prestigous" Atlanta Cup for the Labor Day Weekend. Our team played at the Polo Club and oh what a club it must be. The fields were in the worst shape of any I have ever seen. Huge potholes in fields, fresh manure on some of them. There were not even benches for the teams to sit on. Publix should be ashamed to be a part of this as well as the host club!

That was almost 20 years ago. Mark must be an old man by now. Are you afraid of old men.

He wrote love letters to one of his 14 year old players while serving time (in 1999) for his violent felony in a Georgia prison.

During depositions in Michigan, Christensen admitted writing those letters to a girl he believed "was thirteen or fourteen years old".
