Causes rapid growth in bones (usually at expense to density). People with it are often tall and frail.

That's nuts. I wonder why that happens. Makes no sense for bone growth to be uncontrollable if you have a decrease in cardiac output. Maybe....some hormone in the blood isn't getting to the bones enough from the decreased blood volume to stop the bone growth?

I'm now curious and will google this at some point.

From what I understand he was never diagnosed with giantism, marfan syndrome, or any other affliction.

Rapid division of a protean found in many areas of the body--can include bones.

It's going to take me a long, long time to get used to your new avatar.
That said, fantastic work. I think I know what my Halloween costume will be this year.

His most valuable skill is his offensive ability. If he's going to be in the lineup, I think he absolutely should be on the 2nd unit PP. Put players in the best position to succeed.
