DEFENSIVE LINEMEN D’MARCO FARR AND MICHAEL STRAHAN
FEATURED ON NFL UNDER THE HELMET

The fifth episode of "NFL Under the Helmet" will feature two of the NFL’s top defensive lineman: D’Marco Farr of the St. Louis Rams and Michael Strahan of the New York Giants. NFL Under the Helmet is a 30-minute show that airs FOX-TV, on Saturdays at 12 noon. The show is FCC-friendly and geared to teen fans.

Farr will be interviewed by one of his biggest fans, 12-year-old Omar White. In the segment, Farr shares football tips with White and then shows him some sack techniques including his "body slam." Strahan will be featured in the programs weekly "Back in the Day" segment. He reveals that as a young football player whenever he made a good play and came back to the sideline he would cry. He didn’t know why that happened but compared himself to Celine Dion winning the Grammy.

Also on the show will be a ping pong tournament set up by Under the Helmet to test Errict Rhett’s self-proclaimed expertise. Will the Baltimore Raven running back prove to be the best on the team. Cornerback Duane Starks had something to say about that.

In the musical segments, Randy Moss is featured during Korn’s hit song "Freak on a Leash," while noted DJ’s and radio personalities Dr. Dre and Ed Lover join studio hosts Ron Pitts and Jill Arrington on the show set. The two provide their thoughts on music and football and explain why musicians want to be football players and why football players want to be musicians.
