I don't chew as much as I did in college, but every now and then, it really does hit the spot. I don't drink or smoke or anything so coffee and tobacco every now and then is the best I got. ...

Not sure where you got Brown was awful, he had 15 minutes compared to our other bigs and if it wasn’t for Brown the first half coming in with minimal time left we would have more than likely lost by 30.
