Justin Eilers (June 28, 1978 - December 25, 2008) was an American professional mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter, formerly with the UFC and WEC. Eilers trained with Miletich Fighting Systems in Bettendorf, IA. Justin Eilers grew up in Boise, Idaho with an early love of football. He began wrestling in the sixth grade, and wrestled through high school. He missed a football scholarship out of high school due to his low SAT scores, and soon took up karate at a local school.[2] He began competing in small full contact shows around Idaho, where he met up and coming fighter Jens Pulver, who was fighting with the same promotion.

After being accepted to Butte Junior College near Chico, California, Eilers left MMA behind for football, and was recruited by Iowa State University as a linebacker. He would go on to play for Iowa State for the next four years, but between college and the NFL, Eilers took time off to fully heal a shoulder injury. It was during this time that he had another chance meeting with Jens Pulver, who was now a popular fighter in the UFC. Pulver urged Eilers to try fighting again, and after a few months of training, Eilers made his MMA debut in 2002 facing classic UFC fighter Dan Severn at Victory Fighting Championships 3 (a local Iowa MMA organization). Eilers would lose the fight via decision, but the experience pushed Eilers to focus full time on the sport of mixed martial arts. Just one month later Eilers would return to MMA competition, taking a quick KO victory over Jeff Gerlick at an Extreme Challenge event.

The popular and high rated radio show host from Dallas Russ Martin has allegedly been fired from his trademark show Live 105.3 FM and the reason given was that the station has changed its format to an all jocks err sports station.

The station will now be called 105.3 FM The Fan, centering primarily on sports talk radio, said David Henry, the station’s general manager. Nearly all the radio hosts were retained in the format change, except for the popular Mr. Martin.

Mr. Martin, no stranger to controversy during his seven-year tenure at the station, made headlines in July when he was arrested on three misdemeanor charges in connection with an argument with his girlfriend. Those charges are still pending, said Tim Powers, Mr. Martin’s attorney.

But Mr. Martin is not a stranger to all this high drama. Martin has seen all this in his career spanning almost seven years and has made headlines when he was busted by cops for charges relating to his girl friend.

Daniel Ruettiger (nicknamed "Rudy") grew up in a middle class household, the third of fourteen children. He attended Joliet Catholic High School, where he played for locally famous coach Gordie Gillespie and led the team in tackles his junior and senior years.

Ruettiger harbored a dream to play for Ara Parseghian and the Fighting Irish football team, despite being merely 5' 7" and 165 pounds. Parseghian encouraged walk-on players from the student body. For example, Notre Dame's 1969 starting center, Mike Oriard, was a walk-on who eventually won a Rhodes Scholarship and an NFL contract with the Kansas City Chiefs.
