Post Race!

[Shaggy Hiker]

Darn, tried for a duplicate and failed.

I didn't think this had merit for a thread of it's own - but post race? Why not!

Well y'all, I have an update.

[dday9]

When I met my wife I weighed 105 and was fit.

[dday9]

After 6 years together I weigh 189.

[dday9]

After a week of using the MyFitnessPal app and using the workout bike for 20 minutes, 3 days last week, I now weigh 183.

[dday9]

My goal is to get back to 150.

[dday9]

But I'm proud of myself.

[homer13j]

It all depends on how tall you are. I'm just under six feet and haven't been anywhere near 150 since I was a teenager.

[homer13j]

Can somebody explain why they scheduled the NFC championship game on the west coast as the early game and AFC game on the east coast as the late one?

[szlamany]

My wife has been asking the same question all week - it makes absolutely no sense!

[Shaggy Hiker]

The first game's a good one, though.

[Shaggy Hiker]

I don't think I've weighed 105 since I was about 7. I'm 6' 3", though.

[dday9]

I was rooting for the Packers but it was a great game.

[dday9]

I'm about 5'10" or 5'11" I'm not quite sure.

[Gruff]

At my tallest I was about 5'10". Now days I measure about 5'9" My heaviest was close to 300lbs.
I'm at 270lbs now. I would love to see 150 again but I'd settle for 180.

With full onset diabetes I have a difficult time missing meals or dieting. If my glucose drops below 80 I get hyper tense and break out in a pool of sweat. Feels horrible, like the flu.

If I get to high a level I get so tired and dingy I can barely stay awake.

[dday9]

My wife's maternal grandfather has diabetes and my maternal grandfather also has diabetes. It's a terrible, terrible disease.

[homer13j]

The first game's a good one, though.

Too bad the second one was a blowout. Both teams I wanted to see in the Super Bowl lost.

Which only leaves one alternative...

[homer13j]

... 5'9" ... 270lbs ... full onset diabetes ...

Damn... Hope you last longer than my last friend with stats like those.

[homer13j]

Good hockey game going on in Detroit tonight. I need to make one last pilgrimage or two to Joe Louis Arena before it gets torn down as part of Detroit's bankruptcy settlement.

[Shaggy Hiker]

That second game sure was a snoozer. Having grown up in souther NH, though, I didn't mind the outcome.

[homer13j]

Having grown up in northern Ohio I've never experienced that outcome.

[dclamp]

Having grown up in Southern California I don't care about anyone else.

I went to college at Allegheny, just over the line in PA. Most of the students were from either Pittsburg or Cleveland, so the Squeelers-Clowns game was always pretty intense. Both teams really sucked during those years, though, with Pittsburg sucking just a bit worse, so the fans of both teams were torn as to who they should jeer most loudly.

[homer13j]

Penguins-Flyers: 66 combined penalty minutes in the second period alone. These guys REALLY don't like each other...

It was mostly the same story down the road at Thiel, but I enrolled in January, 1994 (at the age of 27) and the Browns would be gone two years later.

[homer13j]

I believe it's Jule's (or is it Jules') Tavern in Greenville, PA that still prominently displays above the bar the Cleveland Plain Dealer's sports page from the Browns' 51-0 blowout of the Steelers on September 10, 1989.

[Shaggy Hiker]

I may have been watching that game, but probably not. Allegheny has an odd trimester system, so I showed up sometime in early September for the first semester. I'm not sure whether I would have been there on that date or not.

[Gruff]

Jeez guys. Stay on topic. Start a Sportz thread in chit chat.

After all the topic in post race is....

Never mind.

[Bonker Gudd]

Must have now

[dday9]

Eww, the McRib. When I worked at McDonalds I had to make those and I still remember the stintch from those nasty things.

[dclamp]

My dad love them and always buys 1 when the season comes around. I tried one and it was disgusting. Tasted nothing like rib meat.

It's not rib meat. It's McRib meat. And it's your dad's fault for not knowing the difference.

I hear Mickey-Dee is going to open a new food line.

McChinese.

They're going to hire has-been performers, too: McMC Hammer.

[Gruff]

McMick McJagger?

[Shaggy Hiker]

The new stores will have ceilings designed by McMichelangelo. It'll be an image of Ronald on a cloud handing a burger to Grimace.

[dday9]

Will the hamburglar be attempting to steal said burger?

[Gruff]

Ever heard of the legend where McPrometheus gave McFire to all Mckind?
(Probably was a McBic)
(All True believers McFlick your McBic.)
