MLN Newswire-www.mlntherawfeed.com-Hollywood , CA . The ABA Hollywood Fame announced that NFL Baltimore Ravens quarterback Kyle Boller joins Pittsburgh Steelers' quarterback Charlie Batch as owners of an ABA professional basketball team. Boller, a first round draft pick in 2003 by the Ravens, the second quarterback selected by behind Cincinnati's Carson Palmer, was a three year starter for the Ravens after a great career as a three year starter and MVP for the University of California. "I'm looking forward to suiting up as the Fame's 13th Man after the season and perhaps meeting Charlie on the court. We're looking to do some exciting things with the Fame with lots of celebrities and entertainment. I understand that teams all over the country have asked to play us - and I suppose we'll be accommodating with some surprise visits."

Aside from a great career at Cal, Boller impressed NFL scouts when he threw a football from one knee 65 yards through the uprights. According to AJ Discala, Fame co-owner, "If Kyle can do that with a football, surely he can hit a three from 20 feet."
