PWD 482: Find Fandango!

[Stargazer Rex]

I'm going to clear out the one little room in my basement this weekend so I can start getting it ready for BJJ mats and weightlifting equipment. I haven't lifted in way too long.

You ever use straps? I used TRX straps a bit when I was at that hardcore gym and I liked them, but I don't know that they'd get enough use if I bought them for my house. I was toying with the idea of just getting straps, a trap-bar, and some bumpers to start.

To clarify I meant TRX straps, not wrist straps for deadlifting.

I never have, I've seen someone using them when I use to go to a commercial gym. I got strong just doing to main powerlifting movements so I mainly just stick to them. I would try anything once though. I'd even try crossfit!

I wish more people in the real world spoke sherdog and realized being called "Big Nasty *first name*" is probably the highest compliment a person can get.

I called my boss Big Nasty Gary a few weeks back and he looked at me kinda weird, but then smiled and shrugged.

I started calling my kids Big Nasty *first names* a couple years ago. I would add on sometimes a backstory as well, I would say "they can go from nice to nasty at the slap of an ass"

I wonder if Rexdad is a constructive coach in the stands or is cutting promos on the other team's parents?

Laid back for the most part, but when I cheer the kids on I can get pretty loud.

I can't imagine the pop when one of the Medium Nasty Power Double Brothers executes a flawless takedown in front of a sold out gym of Rexamaniacs

A couple seasons ago my older boy (he's the tougher/better athlete of the two) got his throat crushed by a really good wrestler that wrestles year round and I believe was 4th ranked in the state. He was crying and I knew it was serious because he doesn't cry unless it's something legit. I was talking to him in between periods and I could tell he was jacked up, he could barely breath. I was like "No, you are done. The match is over". He begged me to keep going, it was one of the toughest moments as a dad with his wrestling because I know how tough he is but I also want to protect him. I ended up letting him go back out and he lost on points, he fought with everything he had to not get pinned. It was like Mankind climbing back up top of the hell in a cell and I was Terry Funk trying to stop him.

As they get older this will change. Because the older one will have to look after you're crippled ass when you try and squat and both your knees blow out.

Grow a few plants and it isnt in short supply and you start getting silly with it man. It isnt that far fetched .Ill sit there bored in the winter and roll joints like lincoln logs making towers and shit

It's not about the supply - it's just math, thc and body weight. Even a smoker as heavy as you, I'm pretty sure you could get away with smoking "just" two gram joints and it would have no appreciable affect on your buzz, lol

Has Aussie Syd upped his trash talk game in preparation for Fantasy Football competition?

Place went bananas when Paul Bearer came out.

I was watching when Eddie earned that sling, yuck.

One of the reasons that I'm happy I had at least one daughter: "Girls take care of their papas when they get old. Boys go off to fight other peoples' wars for them."

@Gregolian don't forget your fantasy buy in

My knees are actually in really good shape considering all the things I've put them through. My shoulders are starting to ache though as I get into my 30s, I'll probably end up destroying my shoulders benching and he will have to come wipe my ass.

He got hemorrhoids previously, its only a matter of time. People always say hey look at me squat this gigantic amount of weight. No one stops to think hey should I squat this gigantic amount of weight. Im looking at you Crossfit people.
