Your “Don’t Forget To Keep Fit” Friday Evening Open Thread

In this time of…well whatever we want to call it.  Let’s say “Teh Viruhl Threat”?  And with the social distancing thingy, etc.  It’s easy to become complacent and just nap on the couch while watching documentaries and game shows.

(stop looking at me like that)

((OK fine, yes that’s mostly what I’ve been doing))

(((jerks)))

But still, it’s important to stay healthy in other ways as well.  And it can be done without exposure.  I ran around my house today 50 times just to get some cardio in.  Yes, I’m serious.  I did repeatedly trip over a tree limb which I haven’t cleaned up yet.  BUT I DIDN’T FALL DOWN!!!  OK, maybe I fell down the first time.  NO YOU SHUT UP!!!!

Then I remembered to jump the next 49 laps.  Still haven’t cleaned up the limb yet though.  Fuck it.

But in all seriousness…

Your own health is important.  It’s the most important.  You can’t do anything for anyone else, or for yourself, if you don’t have your health.  And of course that’s not always totally under our own control.  Shit happens.  But you can get out and even with social distancing be able to get the exercise your body needs.  Or stay in and work it.  Just don’t give up.  It’s not easy these days.  But if you can push through as best as is possible, when this passes you’ll be glad you did.

Excercising Your Rights As A Sports Fan

Still not much to get excited about.  But let’s try.

NFL

Grading the 2020 NFL Draft.  Top to bottom according to CBSSports.

  1. Ravens
  2. Vikings
  3. Broncos
  4. Dolphins
  5. Bengals
  6. Raiders
  7. Cowboys
  8. Rams
  9. Jets
  10. Chiefs
  11. Eagles
  12. Patriots
  13. Panthers
  14. Browns
  15. Giants
  16. Jaguars
  17. Buccaneers
  18. Cardinals
  19. Lions
  20. Colts
  21. 49ers
  22. Bills
  23. Falcons
  24. [*Redacted] s
  25. Titans
  26. Texans
  27. Saints
  28. Steelers
  29. Seahawks
  30. Bears
  31. Chargers
  32. Packers

I don’t necessarily agree with this order.  I think the Bills, Titans and Panthers (ugggghhhh) did better than they’re being given credit for.  But I do think the Ravens killed it.  Suck it rest of the AFC North.  Now, when Harbaugh fucks it up it’s not the players’ faults.

MLB

Yep, they’re still trying to figure things out.  Now we’re talking about three different divisions with ten teams each.  Arizona, Tejas and Florida still on the table.  Yeeeesh.  That should work well.

And of course, when they ran the simulations of this scenario, the Orioles finished dead last every time.  Some things never change.

 

NBA

LeBron James now appears to fancy himself as an epidemiologist.

NHL

And finally, in a simulated post-season, my Caps went down to Carolina in the opening round, 4 games to 3.  Yeah, sadly that sounds pretty accurate.

But congrats to Calgary for your fake championship.  Fuck you Boston.

Aaaaaaaand then there’s this…

NCAA BB

NC State loses four-star basketball signee Josh Hall, who will sign an agent and enter 2020 NBA Draft

Same thing happened last year.  Can’t catch a break.

OK Let’s Get A Workout

(that means two things)

Enjoy…

 

And of course, don’t forget to get your cardio in…

Yep that raises the heart rate nicely.

Yikes.  Considering how much women seem to hate me, any girl who can kick my ass is a concern.  Meh, beats going out from the virus I guess.

Have a good weekend everyone.  And get your exercise in.

Love ya’s.

I’m amazed that so few people know that this is a thing. I really hope that now that TX is “reopening” the day after they had their highest body count, that the people that really deserve to get infected actually do, and that they all fucking die horribly. My “you deserve it” attitude is definitely Republican, but you know, just fuck it.

Did the front fall off?

Brick Meathook

This is the USS Pittsburgh (CV-72). Her bow tore off in a typhoon in 1944, yet the ship remained watertight, and the 105′ bow section remained afloat and was salvaged. The floating bow section was nicknamed the USS McKeesport.

herodotus450

The bow is the front part.

SonOfSpam

How starboard you are.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Which side is the arrow part?

Viva La Tabula Raza

As the LPO of Repair Locker 4 on my ship, and later as the only dungaree-clad member of my ship’s DCETT team, I applaud the Pittburgh’s badass Damage Control team.

Gumbygirl

Gumby loooved him some damage control! He was on all of the teams, and they always trotted him out when they were having inspections like ORSE and such

Viva La Tabula Raza

I was a bored MR attached to R Division with all the HTs (Handlers of Turds). I re-wrote the DC manual for my ship, which, along with my making a few critical parts for the helos embarked on my ship, contributed to my getting a Navy Achievement medal. Not a usual award for a junior enlisted.
My ship is currently serving as a reef in 15000 feet of water off the coast of Hawaii.

Gumbygirl

NAM’s were hard to come by. Gumby wrote a procedure that the Navy uses to this day, that saves them millions. It was a way to use divers to replace transducers on submarines, so they could just do it at the pier rather than have to go into drydock. His civilian boss took credit for it, and got a huge cash bonus. Gumby got a letter of commendation, and a fucking coffee cup!

Viva La Tabula Raza

I love Navy talk. We have a group of various USN vets who get together every Friday (at the wine bar previously, now on Zoom), from a 34 year CMC to a 24 year vet that was a 12 year ST chief that got sent to school for nuclear physics and got his commission and SWO and was a Navigator on a gator freighter to lowly me as an MR2. If your hubby would like to join, we are always looking for guest visitors. Lemme know, [email protected], I’ll give him the Zoom details. also, [email protected]. y’all are more than welcome.

Damn, so that joke about him having Ted’s bad luck IRL wasn’t a joke.

Also, I find it odd that out of all of Joe’s movie roles you went with a television one. Still a good role, but odd….

And apparently he was Christopher lloyd’s nephew. Never knew that

Not that I was ever particularly healthy, but I’ve noticed two particular developments.

I had the freaking kidney stone two weeks ago, can only assume I’ve been cutting back on my water trying to sustain myself with short term energy boosts from sodas and other junk food, really don’t like going to the grocery if I can avoid it…..

And I’m having the worst acne outbreak I’ve had since middle school, and I’m in my 30s.

This sucks. I can’t hit the gym, and I’m more sedentary than ever.

Anyways, here’s some sexiness.

comment image

ballsofsteelandfury

I’m betting this is due to your water intake. If you drink more water, the issues should go away.

Brocky

Oh definitely, and that’s the what the doctor said.

That being said my family is cursed when it comes to then. My mother has had a lot of them She even had one in high school back in the 70s when there wasn’t a shit ton of sugar in everything.

My first one was in high school as well, and the only one I can identify with a particularly gluttonous intake of mellow yellow (it was spring break and I stayed up all night gaming.)

People my age or older pound energy drinks and dont have to deal with them, but yeah I could do better.

This was definitely the most painful stone yet. I did everything I could to avoid going to the hospital, even taking some old hydrocodones, but eventually it was too much. This one was I felt through my front rather than my back, and according to doc that’s because its traveling “in a more sensitive area”

Anyways, that’s enough brocky pity party for now

The ad before the video was for manscaping. Either god is dropping gigantic hints about what to do with my life or I’m being personally attacked.

SonOfSpam

I can do him?

JustStopDude

I have survived another week.

God I fucking miss smoking. I also just realized that Drew now writes for Vice now.

That is depressing. I mean he was neutered like hell before Deadspin imploded, but reading his last fun bag…Its like helping your old man to the pisser, and you are just standing there, hoping and praying that the massive tumor that is now his prostate will just let the urine pass, and just a little tiny trickle comes out.

herodotus450

We’re prepared to offer him (checks pockets) about a tablespoon of sugar to write here for DFO. And if he wants cream…

JustStopDude

Seeing how quickly he noped out on his fellow union members over the deadspin shit, I would not take Drew’s word on anything.

I love rich, white Americans who are pro-union until it involves them having to do something more than changing their twitter profile pic to a union badge for four days.

Viva La Tabula Raza

I keep finding more cool travel documentaries on Prime. I think I mentioned this Mystical Roads program the other day, lots of geographic diversity on that one.
Now I’ve found Great Rivers of Asia, Danube: Europe’s Amazon, and California Forever, about the history of CA’s state park system.
My cup runneth over. I hope lockdown lasts another year.

There’s a lot of dumbasses in HB. Or have you not heard about the riots at the OP Pro/US Open of Surfing/Vans Pro/whatever they’re calling it now?

SonOfSpam

Plenty o’ white supremacists there too. It’s the Florida of the OC.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I’m as big of a covid doomer as you are going to find, but beaches are actually some of the least risky areas, in my opinion. Indoor spaces where people are doing a lot of talking/singing – church services, concerts, sporting events – are the most dangerous, in my opinion.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Protest marches are probably a little risky too.

Brick Meathook

Dockweiler Beach is right down the street from me and it’s closed. On a busy you are not in danger of being within 600 feet of another person, and even then they would be in a passing car up on the bluff or in a jetliner leaving LAX directly overhead.
