Reader poll: Who will win the 2009 East-West All-Star Football Game? (UPDATED with video interviews)




Don't forget to vote in the poll (see below). So far, the West team has a few more votes.

This morning I recorded two video interviews with players from the East and West teams. The guys talked about what they think will happen in Saturday's game and shared personal highlights from East-West week.
The first video features quarterback Blake Bledsoe (left) and lineman Steve Forgette (right) of the East team. Bledsoe is from Central Valley High School in Spokane; Forgette is from Heritage High School in Vancouver. Both of them are East team captains.
The second video features lineman Grant Engel (left) and safety Nasser Kyobe (right) of the West team. Engel is from Skyline High School in Sammamish; Kyobe is from Meadowdale High School in Lynnwood. Both of them are West team captains.
Here are the video clips.
