TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe

My personal favorite is a breakfast wrap with scrambled eggs, bacon, and tater tots; or bacon egg and cheese on a toasted bagel with a coffee. I don't necessarily get hung over, but either of those two are a fantastic morning-after breakfast/brunch/lunch. Remember to drink water before you go to bed. That seems to help too.

Well, my team sure ate shit today.

I'll admit that my Facebook status updates are emo quotes about 80% of the time.

What used to be my favorite show has jumped the shark for me. I can't get into it any more. I think the long layoff probably had something to do with it. I didn't watch 'Redemption' (my brother taped it for me, I watched the first half hour before getting bored of it and turning it off). I figured I'd give it a shot tonight, and it really didn't work for me. The same formula, the same catch phrases, and whatnot. I was only half paying attention, admittedly, but Tony's resurrection is really dumb to me and that might be what has sent me past the point of no return.

The IC title was more prestigious during Show's run in 1999.

All I saw was Dark Knight, Iron Man, Indiana Jones, and Lakeview Terrace.

The Giants didn't play the starters for most of the second half of the Viking game because they already had the 1 seed sewn up, and only ended up losing by a point. The starters only got 9 points in that first half, and David Carr with the backups statistically outplayed Manning & the starters. Either way, they haven't played a meaningful game in 2 weeks, and the one game they could've pretended had meaning they did not perform well enough to convince me they're ready for a red-hot Eagles team who's already beaten them in Giants Stadium this year. Brandon Jacobs didn't even dress for the game. The only game that the Giants have lost this year where Jacobs played all 4 quarters was the Browns loss on MNF in October. The Viking game was a heavy dose of Ward, Bradshaw, and giving a bunch of guys that were banged up the game off, then by half time everybody was outta there. I'm very confident in the Giants this week. I'm a bit surprised at the number of people that are picking Philly in this one.

I'll say Florida.

I'm very surprised at both. The Metrodome absolutely exploded when the Vikes beat the Giants on that last second FG in week 17. Their fans seemed pretty pumped about making the playoffs to me. Then you have Arizona, who have been the doormat of the league for several lifetimes. They might not make it back to the playoffs for several more.

Christmas Story marathon, anyone?

So then why did Boston let him go the first time?

Mwahahahaha. Fuck all of you.

Tonight's Giants/Carolina game should be really interesting thanks to the crazy winter storms we've been slammed with here since Thursday.

My iPod is now officially completely full.

Phenominal. That's my favorite match ever.

I'll give you a briefing on what I do. -Stretch for about 5 minutes before and after. -Most muscle groups I do this way: 5 exercises, 3 sets, 10 or more reps. -I try to do at least 1 or 2 of each muscle group "natural strength" - pullups, pushups, dips, etc. -Rest no more than 60 seconds in between each set -Change up routines every so often to avoid plateaus -Every day I do 30 minute cardio. Usually it is split 15/15 with treadmill and one of the elipticals. I monitor my pulse and make sure that I'm training in my target heart rate zone. -I note everything down in a notebook. Monday: Back (5) Abs (3) Cardio (30 min) Legs (5) Tuesday: Chest (5-6) Forearms (1 superset) Cardio (30 min) Wednesday: Abs (5) Cardio (30 min) Thursday: Legs (5) Cardio (30 min) Back (5) Forearms (1 superset) Friday: Bi's & Tri's (5 supersets) Triceps - natural strength (3) Abs (3) Cardio (30 min)

That's a leg extension machine. The motion/set-up of it is not meant to allow you to do that much weight on it anyway. I'd say if you can consistently do over 100 on it, you're doing very well.

I heard some of the Tirico & Van Pelt show today. Yuck. It's awful.

Forget about training for losing weight then and focus on your sport-specfic program. Aerobic training actually impacts anaerobic training negatively, while anaerobic training affects aerobic training positively. Do whatever the rugby coaches tell you, or workout with teammates that know the ropes.

Carl Pavano's starts, by season as a Yankee: 2005: 17 2006: 0 2007: 2 2008: 0 Mike Mussina's taken a few shots at the guy in the press as well. I've also recently heard that in the most recent contract talks with Mussina (after 2006), the Yankees gave him an offer which would have him making less than Pavano per year, and he refused, citing it as the reason.

Eh-hem. It's $39.95 million. He fired his agent because he didn't get him $40M.

Carl Pavano was scheduled to start on Saturday for the Yankees. Then he woke up with a stiff neck and now he can't go. Amazing.

Hey, me too.
