pfffffffffffffffft Its freaking June and were what, a game and a half back :rolly I aint rooting for the f***ing Cubs

QUOTE(lukeman89 @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 03:28 PM) lol this reminded me of a joke my brother told me a while ago whats the different between cubs fans and cardinal fans? cards fans like pujols, cubs fans like poo holes! That is the worst joke ever

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 8, 2006 -> 01:52 PM) I am going to have to disagree. You might be the genetic-genius but I'm sticking to my guns on this one. When bench pressing, it is mainly working one area of your sholders instead of the entire shoulder. This can be harmful to some because it can leave different area's of the shoulder underdeveloped. As a pitcher, this is a problem. Thats why our coach doesn't want pitchers benchpressing. It limits the movement in the shoulder. I've done quite a bit of research on this one. I agree with RockRaines. Bench pressing is an ego excercise. "How much can you bench?" Dude, you can disagree all you want but bench press works a hell of a lot more than just your shoulders.. Its a great lift for chest and arms, you arent looking at the whole thing here. It seems like youre just focusing on the shoulder part

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 7, 2006 -> 05:57 PM) Oh, and bench pressing is WAY overrated. It helps you in no way whatsoever. When are you going to be able to push off of a wall in real life? Never. If you want to improve core strength, do squat presses. This is just an outrageous claim. Bench Press is a great lift to do because it works almost all muscles in the upper body.. Not to mention the MANY variations you can do like Incline, Decline, Close Grip, Wide Grip, Dumbbell, all working different muscles in the upper body Thats like saying squats are pointless, how many times in my life and I going to throw something across my shoulders and lift them up and down? As far as protein goes... Ide go with 100% ON Whey Protein.. the Vanilla flavor is good and I usually find the 5 LB jugs for like $20-25.. I also have some PM Protein which is a type of protein that you take before you go to bed, since when you are sleeping is when your body is really building itself QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jun 8, 2006 -> 01:21 AM) Ssecondly, the reps vs weight discussion is legit, someone who points to genetics is too f***in lazy to work out. High reps with low weight is for tone, low reps, high weight is for mass. Genetics do play a HUGE role in someones ability to gain mass.. people who are just nautrally slim or small in size arent going to be able to just get huge, it just doesnt happen.. however, I do know what you are saying about people who are too lazy to go work out, and yes you are right on that in some cases.. but.. genetics are going to be a factor in your body type and what you are going to be able to do with it..

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 04:56 PM) So drinking 5 cans of pop a day and basically no water is healthy, correct? Yikes

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 04:36 PM) Other than Beer if I go out, water is all I consume. Water is the s***, I love a nice bottled room temperature water.. nothing beats it

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 04:13 PM) Run, run, drink water, then run some more. Stay hydrated and stay active. You wouldn't believe 3 hour baseball practices can do for 8 months and 6 days a week. Oh, and as far as protein...nothing, NOTHING, beats a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Peanut butter is great.. dunno if ide be eating PB&J's a lot though.. I usually eat just plain peanut butter sandwiches.. Aside from Cardio, a healthy diet will almost be MORE important than the cardio portion.. Chicken and fish is loaded with good protein, I wouldnt eat a ton of red meats.. Pretty much, all I eat is Tuna, Chicken, Turkey, Peanut Butter, and protein shakes.. I usually go through a case of water every 2 weeks, and for the most part thats all I drink except some occasions

QUOTE(3 BeWareTheNewSox 5 @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 02:14 AM) I try to keep it separate, but sometimes I do both cardio and weight training on the same day. Will it have negative effects? Better since I'm going the extra mile? No effect at all? theres no real reason to keep it separate.. its not going to have any negative effects except fatigue depending on which one you are doing first..

KNIGHT!!!! Happy Birthday man

Let me bold this for you guys.. DOING AB WORKOUTS WILL NOT GET RID OF THAT FAT You need to do CARDIO All you are doing with ab workouts are building the muscles UNDER the fat, so you could have ripped abs but no one will be able to see them unless you do cardio.. Cardio and a healthy diet is the KEY to getting rid of that fat, but dont burn yourself out doing TONS of abs expecting the fat to melt right off, its cardio This is pretty basic but incase you didnt know, you have to burn more calories than you intake every day to lose weight.. and you arent gonna lose it all within days.. it takes weeks and months for you to get where you need to be.. BTW Im majoring in Kinesiology for Personel Training and what not so anything else youd like some advice for, feel free to ask

You Are 90% Evil You're the most evil person you know. The devil is even a little scared of you! Prolly be 100% but ive never been arrested and I dont hate kids, but everything else is a definate yes

Garland is such a pimp

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jun 1, 2006 -> 01:43 PM) Hahahahaha. Nothing like loving an unloveable player, yet hating on the workmanlike leadership of Kirk Hinrich. Laughable I tell ya. If I love Artest then obviously he isnt unloveable

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Jun 3, 2006 -> 01:22 AM) That was Oakland's only run. God damn, the Twins are on fire right now. They have won 6 straight. Frank is approaching some milestones. He now has 1495 RBI, and 1494 runs. Thatd be raw if he got 1500 and 1500 at the same time

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ May 31, 2006 -> 09:09 PM) Did Kirk trip your grandma or somethin'? Nope, I just dont like any of them cept Deng.. I call it the Rockets effect... I HATED the Rockets when they had Olajawon, Drexler, Barkely, Cassell, Horry.. man I hated them so much.. then they all left and I liked em with Francis and Mobley now Tracy and Yao I loved the Bulls back in the day, now I just dont like any of the players they have Loved Artest, hes the man.. but they traded him along with every other star they have had in recent years

Do you think Konerko could honestly play 3B for a few games? Move Crede over to SS and sit Uribe when this happens? Honestly, how much do you think it would cost us?

QUOTE(aboz56 @ May 31, 2006 -> 04:57 PM) Also I would like to remind people that we are not losing games because of Anderson. We are losing games for a couple of reasons: 1) Jon Garland has been horrible. 2) Our defense hasn't been very solid. 3) Our bullpen, in spots, has been awful. Don't remember any games this year where I thought, damn we just lost because of Anderson. Some of the vets need to pick up the pace. It's not all on BA folks. Were 6-4 in games Garland has started.. 2 of those losses came from 15 IP and 4 ers, the offenses fault Ide hardly say the #1 reason we are losing games is because of Garland

I would love to get Rudy Gay, dunno how I would feel about Sheldon Williams.. but definately would be good to get Rudy QUOTE(Kalapse @ May 28, 2006 -> 12:05 PM) TRU hates the Bulls, he feels the players are unlikable. They are unlikeable, except Deng.. everyone else is a douchebag

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ May 30, 2006 -> 04:56 PM) Based on what? Radke nevers gives up walks, and the ONE year that Garland didn't give up walks, he was great. Garlands not giving up walks this year, he is just getting hit around which is why I am positive that he will come around as the season moves along

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ May 30, 2006 -> 07:34 PM) Didn't he go to AAA? haha I dont know I was being sarcastic

QUOTE(Melissa1334 @ May 30, 2006 -> 07:30 PM) do the indians even have ONE good arm in that pen? Graves With hair like that, how can you not be a fan

QUOTE(aboz56 @ May 30, 2006 -> 07:27 PM) He almost fell down. We're lucky he didn't butcher it. No s***, everytime a ball is hit out there I can hear circus music playing in my head while Pablo is moving around

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ May 30, 2006 -> 07:21 PM) Show me the stats that prove it. The only thing I see is a high ERA, which IS NOT AFFECTED AT ALL BY SABATHIA! Does Sabathia come up and pound in runs when Buehrle pitches? NOPE! You're wrong, I'm right. That's all there is to it. WHEN SABATHIA STARTS 0-4 2 no decisions and an era in the 7's WHEN SABATHIA DOESNT START 7-4, his career ERA against them is 4.58 so whatever his era against Sabathia is taken out.. which I assume would be pretty damn good

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ May 30, 2006 -> 07:17 PM) I know I am, thanks! sarcasm I dont really care what you think, it does matter and it shows that Buehrle does indeed suck when facing Sabathia.. Stats show exactly that

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ May 30, 2006 -> 07:15 PM) It doesn't. Not a thing. Stop beign a dumbass. Buehrle is 0-4 because Sabathia is a good pitcher. But it also has to do with the fact that the Indians hit him hard, almsot every time. Haha, ok.. youre right :rolly
