Brigade Fans Recognize Raymond Philyaw

The Brigade went from cellar-dwellers to playoff participants last season and a key ingredient in their recipe for success was the guy taking the snaps, quarterback Raymond Philyaw. Philyaw, who is currently unsigned and well undoubtedly be a hotly pursued free agent over the off-season is a deal can't be made with the Brigade, was both a great performer and leader on the field.

So, it comes as no surprise that the five thousand Brigade fans who voted on the topic named QB Ray the Kansas City Brigade Player of the Year.

Kansas City infoZine News reports:

"Most Valuable Player went to Raymond Philyaw by a wide margin. The team's quarterback passed for 4338 yards with 85 touchdowns and only 11 interceptions. He was the arena league's fifth highest rated quarterback."

Congratulations to RP! Now, let's get a new contract put together for this guy!
