	Igor Olshansky -- Profile
		Born Igor Olshansky on May 3, 1982 in Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine.

		Off-season back surgery limited his contributions in spring, but there is little doubt that he will continue to be a major factor when fall rolls around.

	Sampson of the gridiron igor olshansky- San Diego Jewish Journal
		Igor Olshansky, the enormous new rookie defensive lineman for the Chargers, didn’t even play football until he was 15.
		Igor and Marina attended the Hebrew Academy of San Francisco, while the JCC and other local organizations helped the Olshanskys establish a household, learn English and generally connect with the community.
		Unfortunately for local matchmakers, Olshansky already has a Jewish girlfriend (they’ve been together since high school), and there’s a good chance that they’ll get to know her too, since he might be a fixture in the local Jewish community for a long, long time.

		Bottom line: A native of Ukraine, Olshansky has played organized football for only six years, but he emerged as a full-time college starter as a sophomore in 2002.
		Olshansky has some experience at end, but primarily played tackle as a junior after bulking up to more than 300 pounds.
		Olshansky's stock should rise after he puts up impressive workout numbers, but drafting him any earlier than the third round is too much of a gamble.

		Olshansky hasn't reminded anyone of Deacon Jones just yet, but a combination of his play, his potential and the Chargers' need for defensive ends resulted in last week's decision to put the 6-foot-6, 309-pound Olshansky in the starting lineup.
		Which might be why Olshansky believes his summer has gone according to plan, at least if his career can be used as an indicator.
		In fact, Olshansky is the first player from the former Soviet Union to be drafted by an NFL team.

	Williams, Olshansky only locals picked
		Unlike the Chargers' first draft pick, San Francisco resident Igor Olshansky was delighted to be taken by San Diego in the second round of the NFL Draft on Saturday.
		But Olshansky's route to the NFL was a lot different from Saturday's other Bay Area draftee, outside linebacker D.J. Williams, a former De La Salle High and University of Miami star who was taken in the first round (17th overall) by the Denver Broncos.
		In fact, Olshansky, who moved to this country from the Ukraine when he was 7, had never even played organized football before being plucked out of the crowd by former St. Ignatius coach Vince Tringali in his junior year.

		In Warhammer Historicals, however, none of these apply, and Igor racked up lots of points for routing and wiping out a number of my smaller units, enough to make it a tie game.
		On the other hand, the game ending so quickly did keep him from pouncing on a unit of my Knights, who had gotten far too close to his lines and was staring at a -3 combat resolution battle as a result...so I can't complain too much.
		Still, Historicon is a great event, the tournaments always have lots of nifty free prizes, there are all KINDS of cool happenings, and shopping in the indie distributors markethall is a great, happy experience...so long as you can keep a strict rein on your impulse purchasing.
