• Featuring TODD GRAHAM
Warning: Todd Graham May Digress.
Todd Graham considers his bio to be a work in progress and is uncomfortable with anybody seeing it until after he is dead. It’s really going to be something. Names will be named, that sort of thing. He plans to blow the lids off of several sacred cows. He is also a firm believer that no one ever reads past the first couple of lines of these things anyway and that it mostly all come down to the headshot in the end. Regardless – Please enjoy Todd Graham responsibly.
