royalfan Posted April 2, 2019 Report Posted April 2, 2019 Would like to hear about his general defensive philosophy. Perhaps you can think of a way to make it less vague. Also wouldn't mind if Caleb Grill name was somehow involved in a question so there isn't any chance he is not familiar with him. Quote

Someone on one of the Cyclone message boards asked if he was going to be changing his Twitter page. This should be fun as they are pissed off enough already...anything to stir the pot. ;) HolyBobpilgrimage 1 Quote
dustystehl Posted April 2, 2019 Report Posted April 2, 2019 A little dry (I think he may have been reading that from a script), but I'm fine with him lacking a little charisma if he can draw up a damn inbounds play! HolyBobpilgrimage, Nighthawk, PimpMario and 1 other 2 2 Quote

tcp Posted April 2, 2019 Report Posted April 2, 2019 Well, definitely the personal charm factor down pretty hard. He might want to put some points into that next time he levels up. 49r 1 Quote
