OK, I don't want to curse it. But Ricky has yet to fumble at all this year. Nope, not once. And the reason is pretty simple. It isn't that he has carried it less. It's because his biceps aren't as big. His arms were so big in the past that he was unable to get his arm wrapped securely around the ball because his arms are so short. His arms are somewhat slimmer now so he's able to get a better, more stable hold on the ball and hold it tighter to his body. Anyway, that's what I think.
Whatever it is, it's good to see him not putting the ball on the ground.
