    Annual NFL White Purge 2013

    It will be mid-season before I get used to the idea of hoping for anything good for the Eagles. It seems unnatural. If Foles or Barkley ends up starting, they will almost go from worst to first.

    2013 College Football Season Week One

    Braxton Miller with a pick-six, unmentioned in radio updates; they only mention his couple of touchdown passes.

    2013 College Football Season Week One

    I thought Saturday said he would rather have to block Clowney than Watt. That would actually make sense. Did he say he take Clowney as the better player??? If so, that is the worst Caste comment I've ever heard. :dizzy:

    "High Intensity" or "Heavy Duty" training

    Pushups have probably added more muscle than any exercise in history. They get chest, triceps, shoulders, abs, even a little back. Pullups are another great one. Dips of all varieties are also good. Various styles and hand positions can add variety. Legs is a little more complicated. There are...

    NFL Pre-season Week 4

    Tebow is not a dropback passer, he never was one, and he will never be one. He needs an offense, or at least a package, designed for his abilities. He needs designed runs out of the shotgun, and some passes based off that. As much as I despise Urban Meyer, he did know how to use Tim Tebow.

    NFL Pre-season Week 4

    Okay, is the deal that Gerhart is too valuable to play in the preseason, but not good enough to get carries in the regular season? I guess that actually almost makes a certain amount of sense, but it does keep him a secret. Convenient.

    2013 College Football Season Week One

    The next person who compares him favorably to Pollack in my presence will regret it. It's ALL upside with Clowney.

    Clowney taking plays off, and taking himself out. What a shock.

    Johnny Manziel

    I hope this entire incident has served as a wakeup call for Manziel. They are gunning for him. He needs to be governed accordingly.

    "High Intensity" or "Heavy Duty" training

    Nice post! I agree that pretty much everyone should do some lifting. The cosmetic results are fine and all, but it's great for my overall health. The stress relief is fantastic. Workout leads to better sleep, which leads to better .... well, pretty much everything. I train for muscle size and...

    They're Now Admitting They Have Fixed Sporting Events

    in the late 90s both of the Williams sisters claimed they could beat any male not ranked in the top 200. The #203 guy took them up on it, and clobbered both of them. Riggs easily beat Margaret Court 4 months before he played King, and she was ranked higher than King. I think the Riggs vs. King...

    "High Intensity" or "Heavy Duty" training

    Give it a go. If you do the reps that slowly, finding enough weight will probably not be a problem, unless you are exceptionally strong. I took my first set of traditional lifting, where I would do 12 reps and not fail, and that made for 6-7 on that slower cadence. Let me know how it goes. I've...

    "High Intensity" or "Heavy Duty" training

    Sure. I split it into two workouts. A 4/2/4 cadence is used on everything, meaning the lift is on a 4 second count (which is the hardest part for me), the negative is also. Any movement that doesn't have a lockout position gets a 2 count at the maximum contraction. The idea is to fail between...

    "High Intensity" or "Heavy Duty" training

    It would appear so. Now I'm tipping the scales at 219 (6'1"), and every single workout I have gone up in either weight or reps on every exercise, while slowing down. I don't have a way to measure % body fat, so I just go by how my pants fit. If anything, looser than before. I can't imagine how...

    2013 Packers

    I hate to be a stickler for accuracy, but Dropmichael Finley did NOT catch a touchdown. So that homo-DWF got to smack his butt for nothing. That was not a catch. I'm sure the "Cheeseheads" could provide plenty of entertainment, but I don't think anything approaches the Steeler DWFs. That's a...

    2013 Georgia Bulldogs

    Given the inexperience on defense, I would expect Vasser to play close to as much as a starter. He has started 5 games, and performed pretty well, but he is coming back from shoulder surgery. I would say he is an average player. He's undersized (listed at 219) as a 3-4 OLB, but has good...

    2013 Georgia Bulldogs

    Karempelis got some garbage carries in 2011. No carries at all in 2012. Granted, Georgia is pretty loaded at tailback, but Karempelis is better than the black kid who gets garbage carries. The fullback position might be one to watch. Richt has been gay for Quayvon Hicks since he set foot on...

    The Beat Goes On

    Like others have posted, one of the main reasons I pay attention to the NFL is fantasy football. Before I started participating in it four years ago, I had left the NFL behind for about 15 years. Another reason I watch it is that I'm stunned by just how obvious it is. It's fascinating from an...

    NFL Pre-season Week 3

    4 of the top 8 tacklers last year were white (they still are). 50% of the linebackers in the league are not white. Kuechly, Greenway, Laurenaitis, and Posluszny are in no way "freaks" of any sort. They are outstanding athletes, but they are not statistical outliers in any way. They just were...

    "High Intensity" or "Heavy Duty" training

    Weighed today. Up another pound. Started at 213, now at 218. I think it's muscle. The team told me I didn't have enough "hip swivel" to play tailback, so they are bulking me into a fullback. :heh:

    Tim Tebow

    I guess it's too much to hope for that Tebow would have an offensive package for his abilities. It wouldn't take much to implement it. The Pats are already in the shotgun most of the time, and the blocking schemes wouldn't be any different from what they already do. Of course he needs to throw...

    2013 white vs black starter position battles

    Chase Thomas was claimed off waivers by Oakland. A quick scan of their fans reveals several that are puzzled as to why a player as good as the former Stanford star wasn't drafted. How can anyone be puzzled by that? Willful blindness. Anyway, glad he gets another chance, if he actually gets one.
