I've got a crisp $5 bill for this effort. Just gauging your interest here at JFC. The dude is a millionaire who has been struggling with the ****s for 4 straight years. It's time to get right.

Think there might be an opening?
 
Maybe see a mental health professional for counseling? Medication to deal with anxiety. Yoga or meditation?

Have anybody ever reported on exactly what it is Rodney has?
 
Decent chance that he has anxiety-induced IBS (or something similar). It's hell. I understand why people like to joke about it, but the reality is that there are no simple fixes to the problem. Sometimes a low FODMAP diet (which is really restrictive) can help, but it's no guarantee.
 
And yes, an article was written about Hood's nerves before games last year. He had this occasional problem since college. I doubt there is any medical answer, unless you want to have him on mood suppressors all the time. He says he reads certain Bible passages that help calm his nerves before the game.

Looks like he threw up before and during games while at Duke.

Should read Playboy instead.

That’s what the catcher on Major League 2 did for his anxiety of throwing back to the pitcher. Perhaps that’s what you were referencing.

Zoloft could be a relatively simple fix. I don't think he needs to worry about dietary changes at all. It's 100% mental.
