BTW my wife and I are talking about getting a dog and I like DelJuan for its name. Now how many dogs are named DelJuan ? I like it !

I don't know. What I do know is that the coaches don't think like a lot of us and that is probably good most of the time. To me, Weaver is unspectacular - seems like his name is never called. To the coaches, they may think he is "solid".

If you haven't read Keith's article, check it out. He gives Weaver the benefit of the doubt regarding his possibly playing a couple of years while nursing injury....it is a plausible scenario...
