GYERO ARCHIVE

[krazykats]

6’5 260, down from 280 a month or 2 ago. Been hovering here for a few weeks and really need to get down into the 240’s. Depressing thinking what that is going take.

I rarely eat fast food, don’t drinks cokes(usually 1 sweet tea at dinner), and walk 3-4 miles 3-5 times a week.

From here..........what’s that? El Nopal for lunch? Yes, don’t mind if I do!

The new pitchman I see all the time is the dude who claims to be a fighter pilot and acts like that has anything to do with what he is hocking.

"The Big Ten wasn’t the SEC; it wasn’t the Big 12. It was better than that, and it was happy to tell you all about it."

Oh, ok then.

- I’m at Planet Fitness. Is it limited when it comes to free weights? Yes. Do I care? Not really. I’m 41. Just want to stay in shape, de-stress and have some decent muscle tone. Plus, it’s two minutes away and cheap.

- I’m no NBA ball but watching the Nuggets and Heat is an absolute joy. And I’m no LeBron fan at all but it’s amazing seeing him play like an adult in a junior high league. Guy is unreal.

- Being in a text thread with DocBoat is an experience- let me tell ya.

- My “fairly easy to find” proofer staples:
Rare Breed
Old Granddad 114

BBdK’s 15-year Knob picks are unsurprisingly tough to grab now.

- That said, one drink max now. Just not worth it on a 3-hours-at-a-time sleep schedule.

- Been saying it for years- September is the most consistently pleasant weather month of the year as far as appeal to the masses. May right behind it.

- I f’ing love Pat Riley.

- Chickfila is great but their breakfast is slightly overrated. Their biscuits just aren’t as good as McD, Wendys or Frischs. That said, I’ll wait for Tommy’s take.

Just wait til you knock back a bunch and get a wake-up call after about 2-3 hours of sleep. Very disorienting.

IIRC, shortly after the initial shock of having an infant, my drinking went way up. Nothing else to do. Frequency more than quantity.

Chick sportswriters ...

Christine Brennan is the crustiest of all. I think she hates sports sans women's soccer.

 

[BBdK]

The best standard fast food Sausage/Egg/Cheese biscuit is...Dairy Queen. TS. It's perfect.

Hardee's has the actual best biscuit.

O'Neil and Hill?

 

[WayneDougan_rivals170043]

always go high reps over maxing out.

Lol... who the f is this guy? My wife doesn't want to hear about how many reps of 135 I can do. She wants to know how much I can max on the bench! Well, she says she doesn't care and rolls her eyes when I tell her, but I think she secretly does.

 

[Wrong]

O'Neil and Hill?

Sally Jenkins is awful

 

[JamesIII]

It seems as if almost many of these female sports writers are out to *prove* themselves so they can be accepted to the club, which ultimately leads them to making terrible sports takes. Listen, we get it. You have a ****** and didn't play the sports that we all love, yet that doesn't mean you have to engage in a game of one-upsmanship regarding today's issues in order to build your credibility (that also goes along with the ilk of Kyle Tucker and other sports writers). Find your voice, base it on facts, and profit.

*I know that post may sound misogynistic and it probably is...but whatever.

 

[legalbeagle123]

Even money that Kyle Tucker and Dan Woken never wore a jock or competed at a high level in any athletic event.

 

[MaxPowerrr]

I’m old enough to laugh at you young bloods just now discovering Christine Brennan

Haven't eaten there in years, but once upon a time Hardee's biscuits and gravy were the gold standard.

-they've definitely sniffed a few, fer shern.

 

[VernHatton52]

Dairy Queen also makes eggs to order. I can get 3 sunny side up and dip my sausage biscuit in the runny yolk. Such a delight.

 

[pretzel__logic]

as a gym hardo, nothing wrong with PF for general public dad trying to keep himself together. I mean, I wouldn't be caught dead in there, but I'm fully on the obsessive side of the spectrum and I love my filthy non-AC warehouse gym. Bonus, I'm probably immune to tetanus???

Related: Long Gone Summer was awesome and juicy baseball needs to make a comeback with a quickness.

 

[anthonys735]

-Had no clue who that Brennan chick was until today.

-DQ B&G are(were) the actual gold standard. I try to model my gravy after theirs.

-Speaking of, no respectable home cook should have dear in the headlights when it comes to making a simple sausage gravy. Very easy and helps you understand how to make other sauces and gravies. My chorizo gravy is WAF!

-Still a member of PF, signed up when I was going to be traveling a bit and they have gyms all over the place. They're fine. Need to cancel that membership but going there in person to do so sucks.

-Reps, lots of them. Average workout has 27 sets x 20 reps. Try to keep HR in the 130 range for the bulk of it. :30 rests b/w sets. Works out to 550-600 calories for me. WAY too old to be maxing out. For Wayne, repped 3x20 with the 90# dbs on Tuesday. Sloot was genuinely not impressed granted it's hard to impress a 8 month pregnant woman.

-Only GYERO would have it's biggest meathead be a chick. Seems perfect.

-Pissing off cheerleader moms, what a dumbass way to ruin a week. 2 groups I'd never want to f*ck with, IRS and Cheer Moms. No f*cking thanks.

-1 of the text threads limited DrX to a 2 meme per week limit. Game changer.

 

[WayneDougan_rivals170043]

Brennan’s original claim to fame was the Ryan Lochte-Brazil story. You would have thought he was trafficking children or something the way Brennan came down on him. She’s absolutely awful.

 

[buckethead1978]

I signed up for Planet Fitness at the end of January. Told myself I’d wait until March to avoid the New Years crowd. Covid hit, I still haven’t been.

With that said. I’m down to my weight from 12 years ago, 165 lbs. I’ll take it.

 

[Mossip]

PF always triggers me. It's not a bad deal at all really. Hell, I'd join if they added some more free weights.

The "lunk alarm" and pizza night drives me insane.

 

[cricket3]

I worked in the kitchen on a weekend retreat camp in high school and college occasionally and Dairy Queen donated their gravy mix every year, they may let you buy a bag.

 

[anthonys735]

Are there any Druther's left?

 

[gobigbluebell]

pizza night drives me insane.

What exactly is your problem with pizza night?

 

[grantbob]

Are there any Druther's left?

There's one in Campbellsville

 

[justa]

In my avatar

Also you have to call the PF finance company to cancel. Not in person

 

[anthonys735]

[PTI Anon1640710541]

Pizza Night is fine on its own, but as we all know, Pizza And Anal Night is a big time celebration.

 

[UKwizard]

Can't you just let your credit card info with them lapse to cancel? That is what I did with House of Blue because canceling payforpaw seemed like an annoying endeavor otherwise.

O'Neil and Hill?

Jackie Mac deserves an honorable mention for crustiness AF.

Speaking of, 'bout had enough of ol' Doris Burke. Now, I know everyone just *loves* Doris.... but she's sadly becoming a victim of her own success and and it's becoming harder to listen to.

I'm gonna say she's really started to take herself wayyy too seriously just in the past year, really. Considerably less self-deprecating humor and always speaks in absolutes (Bilas disease) as if there's no other possibility her take is wrong. When everyone tells you how good you are, you stop grinding and begin to miss on your analyses...

Every single time I hear an announcer reply, "without question" I want to hit something. Thanks, Stephen A!!

Kara Lawson was the really good up and comer but she's now in Durham so count her out..

- NBA Twitter was off-the-charts good last night after the Clips choke job. Happy to witness it.

Some people might make a “Oh Holey Night” joke there for shock value but not me

 

[wcc31]

I don’t mind Jackie.

 

[VernHatton52]

Larry Bird likes Jackie. I like Jackie.

Winged Foot story... A buddy of mine photoshopped a press pass for me in 1997 and I walked the course inside the ropes on Sunday and watched Davis Love III sink his putt under a rainbow to win the PGA.

I could all but enter the locker room, talked to John Daly on his first major tourney back from his stint from rehab. Freddie Couples had a **** front nine and he wasn’t pleased with my suggestion to shoot a 28 on the back. Free **** is given to the press in their own tent. Press privilege if you will.

Most reporters had cameras or paper, this guy had an unlimited free supply of gin and tonics in hand. I was toasted and walked a thin line.

PGA events have the all-time worst security protocol. Could’ve easily brought in some baseball bats for signing.

 

[wildcat1973_rivals160373]

I can think of several male Boston sportswriters who are wayyyyy worse than Jackie.

 

[CSC81]

That’s legit one of the best “getting away with something you’re not supposed to” stories I’ve ever heard. Nice work.

 

[wcc31]

This Challenger docuseries on Netflix is tremendous, especially for us 80s/90s kids. Still remember that day at school.
