Browns receiver Odell Beckham Jr., while enjoying sideline and locker room access afforded to him by LSU, was caught on camera handing cash to LSU players — and also slapping the butt of a police officer. After trying to claim (presumably with a straight face) that the money was fake, LSU acknowledged that some of the money may have been real, and that “some of our student-athletes may have been placed in a compromising position.”

I thought KC had blown it in the 1st quarter. They turned up from 2nd quarter onwards and blitzed it!

yea that was wild. like 7 straight touchdown drives or something.

can't wait for next week!

i'd like to see Tannehill win a SB lmfao.. but i imagine it'll be 49rs/chiefs. that would be an epic SB.

Run 25km 5.54 pace - heavy wind and rain and difficult terrain.

First run in new inov8 x talon 230s - amazing. Felt like spider man, gripped amazingly in some really thick slipper mud.

dope about the mud.

i've done that in spikes, love it.

I've also had an issue with my hips and I still don't know what it was, I think it was a hip impingement so I did band distraction work.

But definitely stretching it definitely makes it worse. Squat university goes through impingement, but after doing some band distraction work and then try a movement that would normally hurt your hips and see if it still hurts and that can tell if impingement is the problem.

tennis ball foam rolling deep definitely did not help. it would hurt and you would actually be tearing it small amounts.

ya similar. i can feel the deep tissue stuff actually damaging it. in your mind you hope it's helping.. and initially it might feel like it is, causing a rush of blood flow etc, changing the pain perception. but it always gets worse for me.

additionally, if stretching is one of the original culprits, then i'll stay away from it being a potential fix. stretching has always been my arch nemesis and it finally got me. but maybe it didn't, because now i'm not stretching at all and I feel decent (unless i run or stretch), so i'll eventually come out on top. :ninja:

some great things to come from this:
- don't have the urge to run with a watch anymore (nor strava): ie, i ran that mile race in december with no watch & glasses.
- not stretching
- don't care about competing with myself or others
- running (in small spurts) with dogs instead of running by myself (giving them more attention)

eventually it'll work out.

I went to the Physio today. They said that I should cease doing the eccentric calf raises because the achilles was still damaged.

damn man that's rough.

Quote
Will I ever be able to run again...

really really hope so.

Soreness-
Achilles. This is an absolute bastard of an injury. I went to the beach yesterday and within hours my achilles felt sore and was red/swollen/tender.

due to walking in the sand? or from the previous day?

i imagine walking around in the sand could really stress it. that always feels like it could be a real ankle workout when i do it. i don't like walking/running in thick beach sand, feels so weird.

pc man!

I'm not exactly sure when I made it worse in the sand as I don't recall feeling any pain at the time.

ah.

Quote
I've stopped trying to jog for the time being and will just stick with walking for a while- at least I can still walk lol.

yup :/ it sounds odd but it's true optimism. if the injury inhibited your walking that would really suck.

Planted the first seeds for 2020. It is way too cold outside, but i plant in the office, got a big window facing south-west so tons of sun and temperature steady around 25 Celsium. It is practically a green house.

Experimental seeding this year, two new varieties that a friend of a friend provided :
  • Aji Charapita, famous as the most expensive hot peppers in the world. Idk about that, seeds are all over the net so i doubt it. Those peppers are very cool, little orange balls with a sudden and extreme burst of heat that also quickly goes away.
  • Scotch bonnet , those are like scorpions but bigger and about half hot, so it is a great everyday choice.

awesome!

never seen those aji's before:

The Carolina reaper plants gave a lot of peppers. But i am probably growing them just because it is the hottest in the world. This shit is not edible,  it is purely toxic.

loool.

i don't think i've had them. i might have a carolina reaper plant now that my friend gave me to "foster", but not sure. i think i have reapers, ghost & scotch from him, as well as some more edible peppers.

Quote
We are 3 experienced, almost addicted, chili eaters and yet we haven't been able to consume, together, even one whole normal sized pepper at a meal. The burn is really out of this world. Oh well ill keep farming it, it is so extreme as a.... creature that it is enough rewarding do it. It is easy now too, the tree is multi-year. After the big colds , around early March, i chop it down to a few inches above the soil, then after a little while it sprouts new branches and re-grows, using the already established root system. So new 'babies' are much stronger. It will be the 4th year i do this IIRC. Awesome!

sick. love it. i'm bad at cutting things down etc. takes more experience it seems.



good luck!

Reading, Books, & Sheeit / Re: Book Journal

This book was a great read!

"For decades, politicians- Republicans and Democrats both- and pundits had all been spewing empty platitudes of praise for "the heartland", "real America", and "small-town values". Then, with shameless hypocrisy, they supported the very policies that helped destroy thriving small towns.
Corporate elites said they needed free trade agreements, so they got them. Manufacturers said they needed tax breaks and public-money incentives in order to keep their plants operating in the United States, so they got them. Banks and financiers needed looser regulations, so they got them. Employers said they needed weaker unions- or no unions at all- so they got them. Private equity firms said they needed carried interest and secrecy, so they got them. Everybody, including Lancastrians themselves, said they needed lower taxes, so they got them. What did Lancaster and a hundred other towns like it get? Job losses, slashed wages, poor civic leadership, social dysfunction, drugs".

^^ damn.

You might have Femoroacetabular impingement
Something I had the last time I got back into jumping, right hip hurt like hell when I landed, but before that even walking, especially up stairs made it feel bad.

What fixed it for me was releasing both the long and short adductors and stretching them.
Plus attacking every area on the inner the leg/groin and down by the glute, plus glutes, piriformis.

Then stick the end of the thin part of a oly barbell across the inner top of the hip crease while sitting - yes it hurts a lot...

But it's usually due to adductor tightness and disfunction - not many people release and stretch them
Avoiding stretching is just gonna make it worse...

That Got ROM guy on youtube had the same issue, and I used a lot of his stuff to fix it
See the vid description for more details
also just do a search for FAI in his channel

thanks for the advice man! i'll revisit it tomorrow when i have time.

soo.. i think stretching was one of the culprits: i was trying to get more flexible (to improve health ironically), after injuring my left glute/ham/hip etc. i think something caused some damage right near the bone, in a few spots (adductor/sacrum). i obviously could be wrong, but when you say:

"not stretching it will make it worse"

i've experienced the opposite.

by not stretching it, it improves a little. stretching it causes it to explode and get considerably worse.

i tried doing some of the fei stuff, including some serious "release" using my jacknobber etc, it was just making it worse. normal "ADL" (every day activities) become impacted when i stretch it.

when i don't stretch it, I may not feel it much during ADL - only a few movements. I always feel it when i do some kind of run etc. I feel it significantly when i bend over, touch the floor, and push my hips back a bit. I imagine some of those stretches way back, pushed it passed the brink. if I had to bet $$ on it, i'd say there's some major damage in there.

it might heal eventually. at this point i just have to wait it out or go see some specialists.

i'll probably just try to wait it out for a few more years. who knows though. i fucked myself up, i'll live with the consequences.

would be great if it healed though, not going to lie :ninja:

if it was at the point where i couldn't get some runs in with my dogs, i'd most likely see folks about it, because that would be very depressing. i guess that'd be the redline.

pc!
