Fresh legs? Hell, if his legs aren't fresh going into the fourth game of the season, forget about it.

His legs looked fresh on Sunday, that's for sure.

Hopefully in a couple of weeks, they still look like legs.

I meant that he would miss five future weeks of wear-and-tear. If he does come back, he got a mid-season vacation from taking hits, so we shouldn't have to worry about him wearing down near season's end.
