i hate that. i've been bartending for the ACC tourney all week, 80 hours, and when i finally get to the gym monday night it'll have been a week away. i already know i'm gonna feel like i've lost all sense of continuity… it's demoralizing

fug i hate this kind of poo. i've never been a pessimist but my mind always wanders into worst-case scenarios. my mind gets bored sometimes and preemptively asks itself how i would react to a given situation and these sorts of things only make it worse. there is nothing quite like having a kid and then hearing horror stories on the news to make you realize you'd fuging destroy a motherfuger in a heartbeat if it came down to it.

making a few catches against shitty teams' shitty sub dime package backs doesn't make you a good player when you do a bunch of really bad stuff too. it's been noted before that the fact that he went to wofford community college probably gives him a boost over the rest of the JAGs that are running around on practice squads. that said, i'd like to see him given a shot in camp. you can't deny production in the clutch, and as long as we're moving him off return duties he should get a fair shot to stay on the roster. i hope he surprises us.

did anyone else see the oh-so-staged video he posted of him working out on the field with his daughter next to him and then them both getting up and walking off oh-so-casually and unplanned, a spontaneous moment captured arbitrarily and genuintely in the life of a True Good Guy

get your vic card out teddy

well we do need a guy to run into the back of a lineman and fall down for .5 yards at least two snaps per drive now that deangelo williams is gone

i've never gotten the excitement

with a decent blocking offensive line you can commit to more 3WR packages because you don't have to put in packages that let you keep TEs in to block. theoretically we could put ginn out there for a higher percentage of snaps to be the deep threat and let your KBs and your Crabtrees and your Stevie Johnsons (if we got either of them or someone similar) work underneath and get separation by way of route running. it could work.

i don't get all the crabtree hate. he had a good year last year despite san fran sucking ass. if he won't demand a high price he would be a massive upgrade over cotchery.

adding this to my queue of things to google after i get off work tonight

i need to start paying attention to sodium. i do a ton of protein, 20-30g right after a workout, and every salad i do has chicken on top. i'm trying to add as much greens as possible to my diet as well as lean meat. part of my problem is i work almost every day, so the majority of my meals come from the bar kitchen, and finding healthy options is a huge challenge.

i've adjusted my diet dramatically in the past couple months. more or less cut out red meat, eating several salads a week, tons of water, cutting back sodas as much as possible, consciously looking for lean stuff. i'm not calorie counting though. i think i need to do more cardio, or HIIT stuff like chimera mentioned. i'm lazy and i absolutely hate cardio.

i did a ton of fartlek training leading up to going to OCS a decade back and i recall it being enormously useful.

camp body

HAAAAAAAAAA!

HAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

i'm not going to post numbers because it's embarrassing how scrawny i was but i've been lifting weights for right on two months now and my max bench press is up 20%. i can't seem to make progress on this damn belly fat though

this. we are all about upgrading every position possible. we may not get a chance to upgrade WR in the draft, so if cecil shorts could be better than cotchery (i expect he would be) then you've upgraded that position. smart move as long as we're not overpaying for him (and we won't.)

how yall like that MRSA blue

who is ted ginn

free agency isn't until tomorrow

superbowl!!!! no, really

not to insinuate anything, but is it possible you've done something to piss her off and don't realize it? posting girls night pictures could be a passive-aggressive move designed to make you jealous or hurt you. that would be immature behavior, of course, but it could also be a manifestation of some kind of pain or hurt. some people have mastered the art of the incredibly-innocent-yet-deeply-assertive facebook post and maybe that's her shot at you. or maybe she's just jelly either way my humble opinion is you should definitely work up the nerve and bring it up to her in as non-confrontational a way as possible, let yourself be vulnerable to being hurt by it, let her know you're vulnerable to being hurt by it, and then put the ball in her court to either explain it and begin healing the friendship, or shut you down and let you begin healing yourself.

someone killed GJ's mom and i think it might've been michael oher
