September 21, 200520 yr I've noticed Crede with a big hunk of tobacco lately. I've never noticed that before. Nicotine is a stimulant and maybe it is helping him focus just a bit. He seems like a different player since coming off of the DL. Has anyone noticed anything new with is swing or anything. Maybe Joe just plays better with facial hair. He's always been clutch, maybe being in a closer race has kicked him in a higher level of intensity. He seems to have a different attitude. He used to seem like he went to the plate with body language that he was not confident. Now he kinda looks like he's gonna kick somebody's ass. Keep it up Mr. Crede! For you kids out there, tobacco is addictive. Don't start. It causes cancer. Seriously.

September 21, 200520 yr Don't be silly with all of your "maybe Joe is better with facial hair." "maybe Joe is better because of tobacco." "maybe Joe is better because he changed his swing." It's the Rally Crede, duh.
September 21, 200520 yr Joe looked at a ton of video while he was on the DL and changed his stance. I have never seen him swing like he did on that last homer last night. He was short and quick and got the head out on the ball. Usually he has to get extended to hit the ball out. It was a great swing.

September 21, 200520 yr QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Sep 21, 2005 -> 12:19 PM) Must. . . resist . . tasteless joke . . . come on, you know you can do it. Slight disclaimer: I used chewing tobacco and "dip" for over 8 years. It was one of the toughest things to give up, but I have seen the mouth and throat cancer that comes from it. Dont start using it, because you might not be able to stop.
September 21, 200520 yr in regard to nicoteen, there is a psycologist who wrote a series of articles for a medical journal which suggested sigumond fruend smoked cigars to keep him in the "flow" of his tought process. according the leghton j reynolds, the stimulant nicotine allows the brain to continue in an intence mode of focus. youd have to find the journals yourself and read them, as its been a long time for me. however, i mean, side burns... tabbaco... or hard work... yeah, your right.,... RALLY CREDE

September 21, 200520 yr QUOTE(Kalapse @ Sep 21, 2005 -> 01:21 PM) He also practically invented Psychology. Well, sorta...I'll just say his name is most synonymous with it...
September 21, 200520 yr QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Sep 21, 2005 -> 01:22 PM) For the most part...though Wundt established the first psychology laboratory in Leipzig. Yes Wilhelm Wundt established the first psych lab, but Freud was really the first to sit someone down in a chair turn his back to them and have them talk for an hour while he stared out a window. He was really the first professional Phychologist.
September 21, 200520 yr QUOTE(knightni @ Sep 21, 2005 -> 01:22 PM) And that is a hall pass for the latent incestual urges? Well, according to his theory all boys have the same urges. Can't say that I agree with him but the man was a hell of a thinker considering what he was on.
