    Flu Outbreak

    Yeah, I said I didn't wanna hear about those. Sure, the definition of a pandemic may be that, but when someone hears pandemic, they picture shit hitting the fan and 1/3 of the population dying. 2009 fits the definition of a pandemic, but it certainly wasn't a dire matter. Shit, looking it up...

    Flu Outbreak

    Yeah, but the last time there was a flu pandemic was prior to the modern era (in a modern country). I mean, did they even use soap regularly back in the early 20th century? And I don't wanna hear shit about the ones they call pandemics where like a few hundred people die. That's not a pandemic...

    God damn that's a shit load of money. Then again, if it's even half the game that the Saints/Niners game was, it'd probably be worth it.

    I don't so much have an issue with Harbaugh's decision to go with Kaepernick as much as I do with his timing. He basically waited until the second half of the season when his team was in playoff contention. That seems like a terrible time to see what your other QB can do.

    Don't start off on GOMAD straight away. I didn't realize it until I read about it later, but EVERY human is lactose intolerant. It's just a matter of how much so. Basically, everyone can only produce a certain amount of lactase (the protein that breaks down lactose). Once you go past that point...

    I always pictured the Queen of Thorns as WAY older. I feel like they went the opposite way with her character. All the others so far have been significantly older than their book counterparts (mostly, I think, due to the idea of having a bunch of teenagers fucking and killing their way around...

    So the answer is no. They've just had the song make appearances. Basically, the viewing audience doesn't have any idea what the song is, is what I was getting at.

    190 isn't a lot, especially for a guy at 175 lbs. I've never known someone who measures their workouts in minutes. You should really keep track by effort. Personally I think 4-8 sets is the maximum you should do for a muscle group (I generally do 2 exercises per group, 3 sets a piece, so 6...

    Not that I'm anywhere near the lifter you are, but that seems like strange advice. Isolation exercises are fine, but when you're benching 190, it's not really necessary to do incline, decline, and flys. That just seems like overkill. In fact, no, that IS overkill. I feel like you're doing...

    My advice? Nut up. It sounds like "stop being a pussy," but in reality it's more of a "quit being a bitch." Honestly, with the weights you're lifting and your body weight, there's no way you've plateaued. I've been there, and the thing that got me through it was just putting more weight on...

    Except that's the reason Mara hit the Cowboys and Redskins with the penalty. They dumped a bunch of contracts into the non-cap year and that was deemed not fair.

    I'm pretty sure he already does that a bit. Why else would the owner be on the field all the damn time? You know he goes down there and "suggests" stuff to the coaches.

    Same here. I've got a version of PS7 that I've been using for almost a decade now probably. Shit's just too expensive. If they would lower the damn price though, I'd actually consider buying it. But no software is going to get $700 worth of use out of me.

    I should point out that Rob Ryan is terrible. He's never had a good defense. But coaching carousel's don't generally work. And giving him the benefit of the doubt for another season might've been smart. And definitely, Garrett should've been the one gone.

    The funny part is listening to everyone (broadcasters) trying to pump up Notre Dame's chances of coming back. I'd imagine they're trying to salvage their viewers in the hopes it'd get interesting. But this game is over. Not even competitive.

    I don't think RG3's injury can be blamed on the field. He's been looking pretty crap the past month. Anyway, some "insider" information regarding RG3 is that it's a grade 3 MCL tear. For reference, Fred Jackson has a grade 2 MCL, so it's worse than that.
