The Workout Thread
I workout Mon-Fri. Mon, Wed, Fri, I do a full body lifting routine. Work every body part for 2 sets, 12 reps. Than do 45 mins cardio. Tues and Thurs, just 45 mins of cardio. My biggest problem is committing to a diet. I get bored with one easily.

Official Recruiting Thread II
QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jan 18, 2009 -> 11:51 PM) Coach Kill isn't messing around. We had a recruit in here this weekend who cancelled a visit to Florida (and he has an offer from the Gators) to be in DeKalb. Now I understand that he probably did this because he'd be a benchwarmer in Gainesville, and a candidate to start as a freshman here, but the symbolism of such news makes me feel good, even if this kid doesn't end up going to NIU. http://highschoolsports.nola.com/news/arti...ted-to-alabama/ Coach Kill is definitely a coach that will be successful no matter where he goes. He rightfully used SIU as a stepping stone and could see him using NIU the same way.

QUOTE (bschmaranz @ Jan 19, 2009 -> 10:14 AM) A team that used to play at Comiskey is in the Super Bowl, how can you NOT root for them!? Oh wait, Kurt Warner's their QB. Yeah. How on earth could you pull for a QB who is a 2 time MVP, was said to be done, only to get his starting job back and take a franchise that was so inept to the Super Bowl. Not to mention no off field problems and does oodles of charity work. I just hate guys like that.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Jan 18, 2009 -> 08:37 PM) SIU returns the favor to Bradley and wins 68-62. It shouldnt have even been that close, but once Anthony Booker got hurt the wind came out of the Salukis sails. Hopefully he doesnt have a significant knee injury He really had the crowd into the game and looked awesome. Ryan Hare is quietly consistent for SIU.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jan 18, 2009 -> 05:14 PM) Um, Cardinals...you aren't the champions of the world yet. All NFC/AFC title games end with that kind of celebration. 61 years. They deserve it. You wanna say, "Act like you have been there before", but they haven't.

That's Cardinals ball, unless I'm missing something. Awful officiating. That ball was never close to hitting out of bounds.

Mac gone from Mac, Jurko and Harry
I wouldn't be surprised if his salary was a major factor in this. Sponsorship is down all over radio cuz of the economy. If they aren't bringing money in to pay him, they can't keep him under contract at that much money. It sucks because like maggs said, Carmen is a good young on air talent, but Mac has the personality and knowledge of a lot of things outside of sports that made him likable and a ratings winner.

Official Squared Circle Thread
QUOTE (The Critic @ Jan 17, 2009 -> 07:15 AM) Every kid in developmental just did a cartwheel. Holly is a dick. I don't know if he was a dick. Most interviews I have heard or read from younger guys say Holly just takes his job seriously and don't have a problem with him. That said, I hated Bob Holly. He was a bitter guy who thought he was owed a lot. One of the big time juicers as well. I never "respected" him for what he had done. He was given so many chances and dropped the ball. They gave him a run with Brock and he stunk it up.

Winter of '09 television season thread
QUOTE (fathom @ Jan 15, 2009 -> 03:08 PM) Agreed..fantastic season and a great potential storyline next year (don't read further due to spoilers if you missed 3rd season) with Eric coaching Dillon's rival. The girls looked hotter than ever last night, with Julie's chest on full display and the continue rise of Minka Kelly to superstar status (check out egotastic for her Golden Globes dress). The championship game episode had one of the best moments I've seen on a sports show with Tim leaving his shoes on the football field. It was hard to get my wife to understand what that means due to the tears flowing down her face. The only thing that would worry me is that besides McCoy, there would be a whole slew of new kids. But I trust the writers to keep it going. And Tyra > All What can I say? I like em tall.

3rd season of Friday NIght Lights was good. They can NOT cancel this show. Hopefully the run on NBC is strong.

Have to stay at home after a hospital visit today. Rented Pineapple Express. Usually hate movies like that, but that was funny stuff. If Franco wasn't in it, I may have felt differently.
