Kalam Mekhar is a league veteran, so he's been at this point of the season many times. Sometimes it feels like you are struggling just to keep your head above the water, especially physically and as you get older. Those young kids have no idea how good they have it! At any rate, Kalam spends a lot of time rehabbing his body to stay game ready. He spends a lot of time doing mobility exercises, in the hot and cold tubs, and with the masseuse. Young Kalam would have thought these things were a waste of time and scoffed at the vets when they did these things, but old Kalam now sees a lot of the wisdom there. Other than that, Kalam makes sure to stay in the film room, cause good coaches and OCs will have some tricks to pull out of their hats, even in the final weeks of the season, to keep opposing defenses scrambling on their toes to keep up.
