Mick, did you see any of the pre game?

Pre game they talked to Lindgren briefly about his week off. He didn’t go to the beach like everyone else, he went to West Virginia and did some fly fishing.

[Mickstix]

Yikees. We're really doing Carbs a service here. Team is bad, bad, bad.

Ah, cool.. I saw him but didn't hear what he was talking about. Probably wishes he was still there.
