Interview with Usama Young
Hey everyone,
Let me start off with a brief introduction about me: My name is Max Strauss. I am a high school student (11th grade) and a big NFL fan. Last April 1st, I started a site committing to do interviews with NFL players! I am here to share a link to an interview I had with the New Orleans Saints' defensive back, Usama Young. I got to meet Usama at Abram Elam (former teammate's charity event in South Florida). Here's a photo of me and him. Hope you enjoy it!! http://twitpic.com/1ys5r2
Usama Young was a four-year starter at Kent State. And, after being drafted in the third round, 66th overall, he has been a solid Special Teams player with the New Orleans Saints since. He has accumulated 3 interceptions and over 100 tackles with the Saints.
Here is the link to it : http://prointerviews.org/2011/01/16/usamayoung/
I want to thank you Canal Street Chronicles for allowing me to share the interview!

Why don't you post the interview here
rather than ask people to log onto an unknown web site?
Fat, dumb, and happy. Hell, two out of three ain't bad!

There's no logging on?
And, on the site, there’s audio to play for the interview.
I’ve shared it on numerous other SB Nation sites.

Plus... in the terms of service, it basically says that...
Even though I own the user submission….
SB Nation can still make money off my submission.
Basically, it would not become my interview, it would become SB Nation’s.
I love SB Nation, but I work really hard.

good job, Max
I enjoyed the photo quite a lot too.
Usama picked off KC’s Tyler Thigpen in the 4th quarter of this 2008 game. He also horse collared Thigpen for a personal foul penalty earlier in the quarter.
I got to see this game. TE Mark Campbell suffered a career ending knee injury and I stood up and yelled “Don’t worry, he does this all the time!” Sorry about that, Mark.
Who knows where or when old wounds will mend?
Oh, wow....
Thanks! I am happy you enjoyed the collage!
Thank you for your feedback, I greatly appreciate it!

Front row end zone. Saw mark Campbell walk right by. Yelled something to him as he went by (although for the life of me i can’t recall what i yelled).
