“We are kind of thug bone, aren’t we?” added veteran Ben Olsen.
This comes from an article by Dan Steinberg about the prevalence of tattoos on the players on DCU this year. Read all about it here, it’s worth it.
Another choice excerpt…
“IM’ing, texting, tattoos, that’s so ’90s,” Ben Olsen said, while glancing at Quaranta. “We […]
