  1. QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Apr 29, 2016 -> 09:58 PM) I thought Jacksonville killed it with Ramsey and then Jack in the second but I didn't get their third round pick at all. I get that their D was bad last year but they need some O line help. Either way I think they could be sneaky good next year.
  2. Lol is this game even winnable or is the computer just going to find ways to say no.
  3. Well......when you don't take advantage of your own opportunities, that'll happen for the opponent.

  5. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 15, 2016 -> 09:54 AM) What sort of equipment do you need to do that one? I'm about halfway through T-25 and I'll be looking for something to add weight again when I'm done. Quite the array of weights definitely helps. From 10 pound arm weights to 50 pounds or more. Having an EZ bar, a bench or stability ball also. Pull up bar or resistance bands too.
  6. I'm 2 weeks into Body Beast and I absolutely love it. I'm already building muscle which excites me. Not losing any way but I have to believe I'm turning fat into muscle. Just feel more toned overall.
  7. I'm sure it's just the nostalgic factor but wow am I excited for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2. Maybe it's because I went into the first one expecting it to be terrible and came out pleased. By no means was the first one great but it was entertaining. Add Bebop and Rocksteady, Krang and Casey Jones, now it's just like being a kid again.
  8. Definitely not taking anything away from Kobe because that was amazing, but it looked like Utah was just letting him have some of those baskets and open jumpers. Again nothing mattered in this game other than send an all time great off, but man Utah was getting hacked the last 4 or 5 minutes and couldn't get a call. Kind of looked staged to me!!!! What an ending though.
  9. QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 08:31 PM) lmao, that was clearly off the end of the bat, twins crew thought it was a HR off the bat, for real? Lol I just watched that. I'm a bit behind but wow that was like 40 feet from the warning track.
  10. It's weird seeing the Sox in first, but I think I can get used to it.
  11. QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 5, 2016 -> 12:08 AM) Sure beats waiting until the 5th game to get the 1st win. Sox now 14-3 in Opening Days going back to the 2000 season. Could've been 15-2 if not for Billy Koch....in 2003 was it? Or 2004? I try to forget it.
  12. Hey! Above .500 at least once this season!
  13. NCAA apologizes to Gonzaga for the blown call of a backcourt violation. So I guess this settles the argument here. http://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/ncaabk/nca...f4kl?li=BBnb7Kz
  14. QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 07:00 AM) Thanks for bumping the this...was just thinking about this last night. I've never tried body beast, nor do I think it would be particularly ideal for me, as I don't add muscle mass particularly easily. I've got more of a swimmer's type of body. Over the course of the last year though, through the combination of several different events (child, major remodel, major project at work, etc), I haven't been setting aside the proper time to keep up with my workouts. As a result, I started getting a little sloppy and lazy. Decided enough was enough a few weeks ago and got back on the wagon. I've also done P90X, 2 and 3 over the course of the last 5 years, but 2 has always been my favorite. So I jumped back into 2, and the workouts I enjoy from that series (core, plyometrics, and total body), but I've also mixed in some of the original P90X stuff just to keep things interesting (cardio X and kenpo X). This allows me to cover 6 or 7 days a week without dealing with yoga too much or repeating things too often. I've found that it took me a little longer to snap back into shape than it usually does after a bit of a break. Not sure if that is because of my age (39) or the length of my sabbatical (probably almost a year), but after a few weeks, things are starting to fall back in line (muscle is coming back, routines are getting easier, weight is coming off). Hoping to keep this pace for another month or so and then ease back a bit into 3-4 days a week. I have found though, that working out immediately after work definitely helps me deal with the bs from work much better. Instead of cracking a beer and whining to my wife about things it just seems to roll off my back as a result of the workouts. You're almost describing me to a T. Having kids sure does cramp your workout routine. I've also been in the middle of home remodel. I'm up to 209 pounds when I prefer to be around 195. Hopefully Body Beast can help motivate me to reaching my goal of at least losing some excess fat. Part of my problem has been poor eating. When I'm around someone who doesn't try to eat healthy, just eats what she wants, sometimes I gethink sucked into that habit also. Plus I'm now 30 and my metabolism isn't what it was at 20. I just need to eat healthier and definitely monitor my snacks. I also prefer P90X the most. Core, Plyo, and Total Body are also my 3 favorite exercises.
  15. Doing my first week of Body Beast and wow is it killing me! I've done P90X, P90X2, and P90X3 for the last 5 years and it's gotten pretty routine and stale for me. This is quite the nice change of pace so far. EDIT: I see it's already being talked about. I've had 2 friends do and they absolutely love it. Both of them have gained a lot of muscle mass and look extremely successful from this. Plus it's not very expensive either.

    QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Mar 25, 2016 -> 11:18 PM) Yep, no one can have their own opinions and everyone hates it because everyone is taught to like Marvel and this is too dark. Everyone has biased opinions but yours are completely untainted. Marvel and DC movies are so much different from each other, I don't even like the compare them. I get tired of the constant "who's side are you on" question. I'm pretty sure both probably want the other to be successful. If each company starts putting out bad movies, the Superhero phase will die out, which it will eventually do anyway sometime in the future. But until then, if both companies make great movies, the competition will only help both franchises financially.
  17. QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Mar 25, 2016 -> 11:14 PM) You have to establish possession in the front court. Just having the ball go past half court isn't enough. I'm sure that's true, but that didn't even cross my mind when I made my initial comment about the game getting out of hand. If only Michigan State hadn't lost............haha

    QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Mar 25, 2016 -> 10:50 PM) Ben Affleck and Jeremy Irons were great. Gal Gadot was good. Otherwise that might have been the worst film I've ever spent money at the theater on. Holy hell. It just tried too hard in every way. Give Nolan any amount of money to helm the DCEU. In other DC Film news, still amped for Suicide Squad and the Lego Batman trailer was great. I don't think Gal Gadot was very good imo. I think she was serviceable but I worry about her being a lead role Wonder Woman. I like her appearance but she had like 15 lines and I thought they were pretty monotone. .....wow am I becoming pathetic looking at dumb things haha.
