Is Kevin Ready?

I happened to catch the last hour or so of The Firm last night on the Hallmark Channel (at least one movie they've shown in the past 6 months that Josh might have watched if he weren't so focused on saving the universe in his new Star Wars PC game), and I started to worry about Kevin. I mean, I know he's working out, but can he run fast enough to escape murderous hit men and hold himself horizontally against bars above their heads? All before heading to a meeting with the heads of a mob family who know he's been talking with the FBI?

Kevin, can you do that?

Jon, you're a sports lawyer, so you don't have to deal with the mob (at least not so much in Cleveland). I think. But what if some of the football players decide you haven't served them well and come after you. Can you beat them off or run fast enough to get away? I'm sure you could outswim them, but somehow I think they're more likely to attack when you're not in the pool.

It suddenly strikes me that being a lawyer is very dangerous.

I hate to be disagreeable, but I think that the mob is in sports THE MOST.
In fact, I can often be heard remarking after every bet that I lose, "must have been rigged"...and believing it.
