Franklin Armstrong is not much for the spotlight. Generally quiet and reserved, he has not even taking on any of the small endorsement opportunities here in Portland, after the Pythons are sitting pretty as the 2nd best DSFL team in the nation, and taking advantage of this hopefully long lasting bout of popularity. Many say Armstrong is the front runner for the DSFL Quarterback of the Year award, and in contention for Offensive Rookie of the Year as well as Offensive Player of the Year awards. In the weekend presser before the DSFL conference championship of the year awards, Armstrong was asked “ Your player is more than just an athlete, they are a brand. You want to expand your brand and what better way to do it but by making a cameo appearance on a movie or show. Which show would you star in?”. Armstrong laughed and shook his head. “I don’t really watch TV or movies at all. I do really like streaming services and I’ve watched a lot of the big name shows like The Sopranos, The Wire, Mad Men and so on. Would I really like to make a ‘cameo’ in such great shows like those? Well, first off they’ve been long completed, and second of all, cameos are cartoonish. I don’t know how to act and I’m not comfortable in front of cameras. Why would I embarrass myself and/or ruin the show? I would make a cameo in a talk show perhaps. Maybe on DSFL’s Mic’d Up, or on a random DSFL network show but nah, no movies or TV for me ever” said Armstrong with a laugh.
