Im praying he wont run out of gas. He did that sometimes in college.

Keep the faith.

by fajunga on Dec 23, 2009 6:52 PM PST up reply actions  

he may gas out due to some nerves.

i hope he’s taken in a lot of what joel brought to the team and tried to instill it into his own game. the team really needs another ‘enforcer’.
