Re: Weight for it....

He looks the same to me.  The things he is doing wrong
(rushing shots, etc.) don't have to do with
conditioning.  I don't believe Antoine can lose 40
pounds without Martin Lawrence-type extremes.  A
person's body doesn't fluctuate by 40 pound
increments, not an athlete's anyway.  The guys on the
radio are full of shit, as is everyone with an
"unnamed source."  Unnamed sources tell me that Greg
Odegaard has been found to be in possession of the
Mars probe, so what?
