    2Pat contract would be cheap under today's salary cap.

    We will have to lose one of Jones/DMo during or by the end of this year, so this isn't a bad idea.

    Neither Luis nor Pat would move the needle on the power rankings.

    He is not running on the zero g treadmill which means they feel his lower back is ready to carry his normal weight.

    That is a very good sign.

    Put DMo with Tom Thibidou for a month, and DMo become monster: unstoppable on offence and great defense like Asic..

    He looks noticeable thinner in his trunk and chest.

    I was about to say that after re-watching video 5 times. You'd think being out for half a year would make him grow a belly why laying on a coach and eating bbq chicken, not being able to exercise normally. But DMo's an incredible worker, he found a way to lose weight, so sick. And if he'll not be needed at center any more, it makes sense to be thinner.
