QUOTE (Jake @ Jan 21, 2013 -> 07:39 PM) I work in the dietary supplement industry (specifically, a company that targets weight lifters) so let me know if you want any help/don't want to get BS'd into buying a bunch of crap from the guy at GNC. There is a big part of the industry that shorts the stated amount in protein products, so I can at least point you in the direction of reputable companies and retailers. What would you recommend, then? Feel free to PM me if you'd prefer that.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 21, 2013 -> 10:08 PM) Looked at an old home (by Vegas standards) today in what was once the most prestigious neighborhood in Las Vegas (there are only 26 homes in the entire subdivision). Pretty incredible old home (although it now needs quite a bit of work). Really intrigued, if I can get it for the right price. That, and Holly Madison just bought a home back there. Here is one of my favorite shots I took today. Whoa, that's pretty neat looking. I'm digging the trees set in the stone. What sort of work does it need?

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Jan 21, 2013 -> 08:02 AM) I think the broken leg must have been written in. I don't remember anything happening last season. I could be wrong, though. Yeah, Frank is about as low as they come now. The whole scene that ended with Debs beating him with the soap was outstanding. Fiona's reaction to Debs' flipping out was very real. The one person who still loved him now hated him, too. Shameless continues to be one of the best shows on TV. I know one of the people at the bar asked Kev about the leg, but I can't remember what Kev said in response. Debs hitting with the soap was as disturbing as it was hilarious. The family, and Frank especially, are so f***ed up. I also liked this exchange: "We're illegal immigrants, how can you charge less than us?" "White's the new brown."

I saw it get as high as -4 today. Fun stuff.

Hoosiers will shock the world and win the Big Ten. I can say that, because it's January.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jan 21, 2013 -> 05:14 PM) Steve wisely pointed out bodybuilding.com. Just ignore their supplement advice, they're trying to profit off of you. They think every weight program requires a good 100 bucks of products to make it work, but dont waste your money. Is there some basic level of "drink this protein shake!" that actually is helpful/required?

After finally having a bit more money later this month, I'm going to finally join a gym. In the few years since I've stopped growing "up" I've started to grow "out." It's not bad or anything (I'm about 6'2" 195) but I want to nip it in the bud. So, here's my question: I want to just generally keep in shape; if anything specific maybe cut a little bit of my stomach fat down (little bit of a belly starting to form). Do y'all know any good websites where I can get a good sense of what to do when starting to work out from scratch? I worked out a bit in college, but I haven't had it in classes or anything since high school, and I forget all the basics. I'm sure I'll be that person at the gym you all hate.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 20, 2013 -> 10:05 PM) FYI, NHL Center Ice has a free preview all week if you want to watch Vancouver implode or any other team. Yup, all the way through the 31st.

Saad playing tonight. Weak early goal. Emery not looking good.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 20, 2013 -> 07:11 PM) It's crazy how the dude shows zero emotion, he's always the same guy. When that shot hit last night, he didn't react excitedly at all, he just started walking towards Mark Few to shake his hand. Guys like Crean or Groce would have jumped up and screamed first. While I agree Crean is animated, his reaction after the Kentucky win was hilarious. Not stoic, not excited, just a "What the hell just happened?" kind of look.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 20, 2013 -> 05:02 PM) I wouldn't be checking soxtalk while at the NFC championship game, but that is just me Nor would I.

QUOTE (Rex Hudler @ Jan 20, 2013 -> 02:30 PM) Rosado didn't quit though. Bastard kept fighting. Did you see after the fight when they embraced Rosado told him he wanted to fight him again. lol I think Golovkin invited him to come train with him. Yeah, Golovkin invited him to his gym.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 20, 2013 -> 04:57 PM) None of the replays showed it did. Glad the upheld it just for the Harbaugh tantrum. Yeah that was pretty solid. I don't think it was a catch, but I don't think there was quite enough there to overturn it, either.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 20, 2013 -> 02:37 PM) So who is rooting against the niners because of soxobama? It's definitely tempting. EDIT: I actually like the Niners and want them to win anyway, though.

Never heard a bad thing about him. Apparently he and his wife were married for 71 years!

QUOTE (Reddy @ Jan 20, 2013 -> 10:53 AM) why don't people like this get arrested and charged for treason? Treason's pretty narrow.

Jebus Hightower, let the kids play. Way too many ticky tack fouls on both sides. It's painful to watch, no flow to the game.

With the trend toward superconferences (16+ teams), I'd like to see them split into 4 divisions, and then have top 2 in each division make the conference tournament of something. Still have a fair amount of bids reserved for the non-superconference teams, though.

Good game between Minnesota-North Dakota today, ended 4-4. Nice win for the Gophers yesterday, 5-1.

No undefeated teams in the Big Ten. What is it, 5 teams tied in first place?

Gabriel Rosario was ridiculously bloodied by Genaddy Golovkin tonight.

Two straight weeks the top 2 teams lose. Nice.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jan 18, 2013 -> 01:19 PM) I'm 6 outta 8 so far, missing on the Denver game that was choked away and Seattle losing to ATL. 49ers 26 Atlanta 24 (wouldn't surprise me though if the Falcons squeeze it out but sticking with SF) Pats 30 Ravens 24 (would love to be wrong here) I'm gonna go against the grain and pick the Ravens. Niners in the other game. Harbaugh Bowl!

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 18, 2013 -> 11:48 AM) total chick post ...

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Jan 18, 2013 -> 08:24 AM) Suits premiered last night as well, need to go back and watch both. Is Mike gonna go on the straight and narrow now?! At some point, him and Rachel have to legitimately get together.
