Surely we aren't talking about THE Andrew Ferrence?!

"Frost Heaves Partner with Climate Action Group"
South Burlington, Vt.-The Vermont Frost Heaves of the Premier Basketball League are pleased to announce that they have joined the ranks of athletes and sports teams to partner with 350.org, a group dedicated to curbing global warming and moving the planet to a clean-energy economy.

"As professionals themselves, the Frost Heaves have respect for what the pros in any discipline say-and the most credible science holds that we'll need to reduce carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to 350 parts per million to avoid irreversible damage to the earth," said team president Alexander Wolff. "Sports and athletes can reach the public in powerful ways, and we're proud to team up with a group raising awareness and urging action in this critical area."

Other 350 Athletes include linebacker Dhani Jones of the Cincinnati Bengals; Boston Bruins defenseman Andrew Ferrence; mountaineering legend Conrad Anker; Olympic cross-country skiing gold medalist Anders Aukland of Norway; U.S. cross-country cycling Olympian Adam Craig; and the Clif Bar Under 23 Cyclocross Team. Two of the Frost Heaves' Vermont neighbors, mountain bikers Sabra and Lea Davison of Jericho, are also 350 Athletes.
