After what he's been through the past few years, I don't blame him one bit for having that perspective.


Me either.

Right. I was going to mention that and post this video because he looks fine in it.Maybe its not as new as it was posted but he wasn't sick for months.

For as short as the duration of the illness was I would be very surprised if the weight loss was any more than superficial and was probably only 10 pounds as he was already dropping weight before he got ill. It's still scary for KAT as a person and for fans of the Wolves.

Reminds me of the height debate … with shoes vs without shoes. Was he weighed with clothes and a roll of quarters in his pocket for playing pac-man or just shorts? These weights change like the wind
