Shock’s Keefe expects a big encore

SHOCK

All the Spokane Shock did last year was sell Spokane on Arena football. And go 14-2. And win the af2 title.

So why is Rob Keefe saying this year's team is better? You'll have to read John Blanchette's column to find out, but I'll give you a hint: better talent. Isn't that always the bottom line?

The Shock open this year's af2 playoffs by hosting the Louisville Fire, coach Adam Shackleford's old team, Saturday at 5 p.m. in the Arena.
