"I have somebody who wants to talk to you". - My friend " Hey Jim its Laron". !!!! I was stuttering for a second there. "Hey Laron long time Skins fan and also a fan of yours". -me. We talked for about five minutes about the defensive squad this year, and he sounded Very excited about the upgrades on the d line. I also told him about the warpath and the concerns of the fans about him not being at the otas. He told me he was flying to D.C. today. (Sunday) It was pretty surreal, I mean to talk to one of my favorite players in such a casual phone conversation. Laron is a very personable guy, He doesn't know me from Adam, but he took five minutes out of his workout to shoot the breeze about the Skins. I think between what was said, and just his demeanor, he set aside any fears I had of him being unhappy as a Redskin... HAIL!
