Cleveland Browns
08/09/2007 5:16 PM The Dayton Daily News reports it's going to be an emotional night for Bengals rookie CB Leon Hall. The first-round draft pick was an All-American at Michigan, and he tied the knot with his college sweetheart, Jessica Cobb, in Detroit on July 14.

Luckily for Hall, he didn't have to purchase many tickets for the game. "A lot of my friends are still at Michigan, and they're in (training), so they can't come," he said. "And a lot of other friends are in NFL camps. The tickets are for my wife and some of her family members." Read more
