Zade McClurg

A 6'1" 220 lb. wrestler, Zade wrestled as a child but not in high school or college. It wasn't until being spotted in Hollywood, California, where he was asked about the business by agent Anjela Ivanova, that he thought he would give the sport another shot, but in the "entertainment" aspect.

During his professional wrestling career, Zade decided to support then controversial Texas politician and republican presidential candidate Ron Paul, stating that he was "the prescription to what is making America sick" and "I am his Vice Presidential candidate". As a result, he has a small but cult like political following.

After Ron Paul lost the presidential election, Zade resigned from the campaign. Since his resignation, Zade signed a contract with the Oakland Raiders and is currently on the practice squad. Zade was on the 53 man roster as the teams third string quarterback during an October 5, 2008 game but received no playing time. The Oakland Raiders are down to their second string quarterback Andrew Walter after JaMarcus Russel recieved an injury during the week 13 2008 game versus San Diego and McCurg is expected to be the backup for the rest of the season.
