Mudbugs on center stage Wednesday

Wednesday night is the CHL All-Star Game, and there is no organization more worthy to play host than the Bossier-Shreveport Mudbugs. It is an organization that exudes class from the top on down, beginning with owner John Madden.

The game is a long time coming for the franchise, which probably should have received the game years ago. One problem they ran into though was getting airfare for all the competing players. Since Southwest Airlines didn't fly into Shreveport, it made finding reasonable airfare for the 20-plus players quite difficult.

General Manager Jason Rent and his crew will do a fantastic job with the game. I can't wait.
