I am sorry to hear about the Revis situation
but I am glad to hear the Ghost hasn’t given up. It would be a real bonus for you if a player almost everyone was willing to give up on, manages to turn his game around and find success.
How do I break it to the cat that since he has been declawed, the rabbit he sees in our backyard would kick his sorry butt?

Absolutely, it’s very encouraging right now. He has the tools and if he continues his early form then you just never know. The interview with him showed a desire to get better, lets hope he keeps it up because we need him this year on the line, he has to prove he can play/

Big Al needs to listen to Big Jenks.
We should trade for him and help him become a better man. ; )
