Makes sense and he'll do a good job! Big shoes to fill though, as was the case with Abbot.

As host? She does announcing, wouldn't think of her for a host or interviewer role. Natasha S definitely.

Parker is an awesome guy and an awesome hire. Losing Leslie stinks, but we’re lucky to have a guy like Parker stepping in

Good for Parker. Hopefully he's in the best shape of his life going into this new venture.

Is there still one last fitness testing this year before the new CBA goes into effect?

I hope so, its a shame we won't get nicknames like Fatmus Sandwichsson coming out of camp anymore.

8 lbs muscle for Parekh, 12 lbs for Suniev and 15 lbs for Honzek.

That's a lot of beef
