James Bell is a local hero who at one time was the pulse for football in New Mexico. He was an all-state high school football player at Albuquerque High, an all-conference performer for the University of New Mexico, and went on to play professional football for the Edmonton Eskimos in the Canadian football league.
James was off and running with a career and lifestyle that would have completed his dreams. And just as his life was spiraling upward, new and demanding challenges were forming just around the corner.
