Larry Fitzgerald

After a 2008 season which saw the crowning of his team as the NFC West Champions

and his third Pro Bowl selection, Larry Fitzgerald Jr. is cementing himself as a household name. Larry set the single postseason record in yards receiving (surpassing future Hall of Famer Jerry Rice), and his 3 touchdowns in the first half of the NFC Championship Game helped send the Arizona Cardinals to their first Super Bowl berth.

Larry was particularly honored with his selection as NFL All Pro wide receiver for the 2008 season, but most importantly, was thrilled with his team's post season performance to date and the excitement and anticipation of next week's Super Bowl XLIII Championship vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers. As the AFC Champions, Pittsburgh is also home to a University which witnessed Larry's unprecedented college football career.
