Mornin' brahs

Oh for sure, you have to watch season 1. There are some real big duds but there's some good stuff as well.

We should prob stop this before someone asks us to get a room. A very nerdy room

When I'm old and/or tied down with a wife and kids I'm totes gonna watch a lotta tv shows

I was all excited because I took a flyer on Julius Thomas in both my leagues (including my salary cap league, where i got him locked up for 1-4 bucks over the next four years), then I checked my 2p2 team and realized I didn't draft him

decent brag tho

I'd actually trade him right now if I were you (depending on needs, possibly not). I feel like someone would over-react and give up too much for someone who is largely unproven, has many, many weapons around him that will take a lot of touches, and will most likely regress.

Nah, I've got him locked up for four years and Jimmay is in front of him for 2 more (and then I'm going to have to franchise him the year after that, no more having him for 5 dollars), so I'm in a pretty good position to wait a bit and let Julius develop.

I'd probably try to move him in a redraft league, though.

Ah gotcha. I gambled on Montee Ball in one of my leagues, didn't looks great tonight, but I'm holding some hope. I almost started Pierce instead, but it only woulda got me a few extra points so it's not looking like a huge disaster for the week.

IANA Cha but I think he makes a pretty weak argument. Which isn't to say I don't agree with the idea that some rounding in some regions of the spine is safe enough to warrant practicing for serious lifters, because the mechanical advantage is significant and spinal proprioception is very important when moving heavy loads. But if he can't see that the video of the chick doing them at the top of the page is completely different from the Lu Xiaojun sequence he linked towards the bottom then he really shouldn't be offering any advice.

So many jimmies rustled in my Yahoo league re: Thomas, Yahoo default waiver rules are Sunday - Tuesday so you can insta snag any player during the Thursday night game without clearing waivers and somebody grabbed him before the half, definitely gonna change that setting but that's also a terrible default imo.

Also my god it is going to be hard to remain a Pats fan this year. I can't find anything about this team to like, and there's plenty to hate.

Glad I've at least lived in Denver so I have an iota of defense when it comes to openly rooting for them.

That RB situation in Denver is Shanny-esque, donotwant.jpg

as always, lolyahoofantasysports

Ridleyyyy.......? Maybe? Lol.

+1

I started reading it thinking it was going to be a more in-depth and interesting article so I linked it. After finishing, I was kinda like "da fuq? that's all you got?"

Agree with you about them being different movements. The guidelines at the end seem like a pretty reasonable set of info as well.

Love the "IANA Cha".

I thought some of what he was seeming to argue sounded reasonable until I actually watched video. Then i was like "ehhh? Wtf is this ****" - my guess is that article is valuable to perhaps 1% of people reading it and 99% not helpful or actually dangerous to the other 99%. It's too easy to use it as an excuse to continue training in a long-term risky manner while not even getting the value of the "risky" training he's potentially advocating. Also, this seems (and he says it) like advice for only elite world class athletes. Who the hell is on forums and message boards arguing that those guys have awful form and doing it wrong?!

Protein/Cal estimate?

8" bun imo
4-6oz turkey
guacamole
bacon (maybe 2 full strips)
green chiles
pepper jack cheese

Pic might be too up close, I tried to show my hand in comparison.

JeffAwesome, this is from the deli at your work, if you're familiar.

Completely disagree. Not saying they're going to be a very good team but there's a lot to be a fan of. Brady, run game, Amendola, couple rookies, maybe maybe a step forward on d if they stay healthy and Hightower Jones get better...

Well there's your problem. Brady hasn't been likable since like 2007.

Fully agree with the first bold part and kind of agree with the second. He ignores the fact that this type of movement, which involves flexion & extension of a loaded spine, wears out discs. While the first video is obviously way worse than what Lu Xiaojun is doing & he is nowhere near end ranges or extension or flexion, he's still wearing out his discs. There are probably better ways to accomplish what he's doing without loaded flexion. McGill would tear this guy's "argument" to pieces.

I dont think its valuable to anyone unless they're looking for new ways to wear out the discs in their low back.

I agree he ain't what he used to be and his off field life/persona is pukeworthy but there's something to be said for a qb that's going to be really damn good and have you in the playoff hunt no matter who the surrounding cast is...

Glossed over this part I assume?

would not eat. Looks like someone threw up in your sub. Probably tastes better than it looks though.

What does that have to do with anything?

Haters probably ghana hate, but a recent rendition bought tears of joy to Robert Plant

Def tastes better. I would've retaken if it looked that bad on my phone.

Taste is 8/10 imo. It just pulls apart bad.

I estimated at 800-950.

Nothing like waking up to a bunch of pictures of women squatting more than I can. Thanks, fakebusto.
