Well it is about time, he only missed all of traning camp and the preseason. Nice job Johnny. Venom, do you like Abraham?
Yer im a bit pissed off with him but is a good player and will be valuable this season if he stays fit
definitely a star on the field..i think he pissed off the leaders of the team (mawae, penningon, martin etc) but he is defintely a beast on the field
