​He is a massive human being. To be honest though, I've been so closely around him so often in his pads and gear, that he actually looked a normal, perfectly-reasonable sized person to me today. It's all relative. Don't get me wrong, he still imposing and should be playing tight end or power forward in the NBA, but you don't get a true appreciation for just how huge he is until you see him in his gear. That's when you understand this nonsense about his body not being able to sustain his style is so silly. I think Daniel Jeremiah from NFL Network tweeted something similar recently. 
The coolest thing is when Cam and Kelvin are side-by-side. The two look like cyborg twins.

​Keep doing what you do.  Thanks for the insight.

BTW, that guy giving you a hard time on the Whiner Line about not knowing Cincinnati beat the Yankees in "76 was an ass.

​Haha...thanks, man. It's all good...that's kinda the way that thing goes. It's just hilarious that people reasonably expect me (or any host) to have an encyclopedic knowledge of sports. I hate "know-it-all" sports guys and I think listeners hate them too. Only reason I remember it was in that time frame was because my dad was at game 6 in 77 series (which I thought was 76!) 

I could tell you anything and everything Panthers/Hornets and have great working knowledge of everything else, but knowing the 1976 World Series champ is mostly useless info in this market.

​TBH, most guys like that probably don't mean anything by it.  In fact, my bet would be that they just call in with stuff like that to bust your chops, keep their day moving, give Q something to comment on during the Whiners and make sure that you feel welcome like all those that have come before you.  The guy probably listens to the show every day, knows you don't know everything but couldn't resist the temptation.  I bet the guy is on the Huddle, right now and may or may not be from Shelby.

​HAHA! That's fantastic. I guess I'll take it then!
