    NFL 2016 Offseason Thread - Fins' Quest to Defend Their Crown

    Love me some Hard Knocks. It's pretty annoying though, that the Rams finally move close by and the Redskins decide to get good and for once we don't end up playing them. I swear I feel like we've played the Rams every single year for the 2010's. Then again, I used to live near St Louis...

    I'm kind of glad how that worked out. The worst part of this show is someone being dragged to final tribal. Now at least everyone sort of deserves it.

    There's a guy that does weird shit with bands (stretches?) on our power racks all the time. The other week I also had to wait for one of the gym employees who was doing some kind of plyometrics with a yoga mat in the middle of the rack. That one pissed me off pretty good. My gym only has two...

    I was a little disappointed by the ending because I thought we were finally going to make some progress. But now reading about the Haversack thing and I'm kind of excited for where this might be going. The craziest part is the types of fans this show has (the type that'd research shit) is known...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I agree. I didn't read Game of Thrones; I started reading the series after watching the first season and never went back for the first book. I'm not super gay about wanting to see the ToJ scene, since I only really knew of it from descriptions. I thought the show was fine outside of...

    My gym got here ahead of schedule. The Rogue Ohio Power Bar has someseriousknurling on it. The reviews I read that said it was like sandpaper are pretty much dead on. I haven't lifted with it yet (just got it 5 min ago), but I can't say I've ever seen a bar that grips so well before. I'll...

    It was a hell of a series there. Both teams matched up pretty evenly. I really think there are just too many direct invites right now.

    That sounds retarded. Yeah, he's made a lot of money already, but getting paid another $22 million and you can ride the bench? Why would not playing at all be a better alternative?

    The hard drive I normally keep my streaming media on is close to biting the dust (makes clicking noises sometimes, and it's running slow). What should I go with? WDinsert color here? Is an SSD worthwhile for speed, or is it bad due to rewrites? I'd probably be fine with 1-2TB.

    I came to the same conclusion, Qhue. Having a gear score 200 DZ sounds great, but it's come too late. You're basically going to see the exact same thing happen. Why they never figured out hotfixes I can't explain. Actually, I take that back, they did figure them out, but they only deployed them...

    So I guess I was wrong about them needing to vote out Tai the last few weeks; which was annoying me immensely. Tai is self destructing in pretty spectacular fashion. I don't know how he went from humble little Asian man to cocky shit talker so fast. I think Aubrey has this thing pretty locked...

    I just finished up a probably 6 or 7 cycle (I did weeks 1-3, skipping the deload weeks -- so probably 18-21 weeks) 5/3/1 before starting my cut. I just kept doing my normal accessory work, however. It definitely worked well. Hit a PR on bench press, and my squat is close to my PR but I'm...

    Thanks, I'll give that a try when I get home. I'm reluctant to do a repair since from what I can tell, it nukes all your programs and that's what I'm trying to avoid; otherwise I'd just go ahead and reformat (it's kind of annoying that it keeps files but not programs, because files are a...

    I'll still need to go to my normal gym until I get more stuff, unfortunately. I use enough stuff that'd be way too expensive to buy outright. I'll try to adjust my workouts to do as much as possible at home, but mostly it'll be to avoid waiting on a power rack/bench press. Dumbbells are...

    I think that's the big difference. Keith at least participated in the game by being a challenge beast. Joe literally doesn't do anything. He basically stopped competing in the challenges (sat the last one out almost entirely), he gets told who to vote for early in the week and then refuses to...

    Yeah, I use the gym as a stress reliever. If for some reason I couldn't go, I'd have to find something else to replace it. I guess video games are a (poor) alternative. I ordered my home gym stuff on Friday; all from Rogue. R-3 Shorty Power Rack, includes j-cups, pull up bars (fat/skinny)...

    I don't know, but the Redskins also apparently got a "first round talent" in the 3rd round in Kendal Fuller. He was injured though, so his "draft stock fell." I also swear we got one a year or two ago as well. My take on it, since I don't really give a shit about college players nor do I...
