When the Raiders are on the verge of releasing Jamarcus Russell, I have to ask myself, “When do you press the panic button?” There are 32 teams in the NFL and some need to make a change before it’s too late. There are three degrees of “needing a change.” There’s the, “we need to do something before we’re tarred and feathered.” Also, the, “we need one more impact player and we need to get him at all costs.” But the most dangerous is, “we think we might need to make a move, but we’ve already waited too long and we…

The biggest controversy in sports and athletic competition over the last 10 years has been the use of steroids. How much, if any, do they improve an athlete’s performance? The drug of choice, with the most question marks surrounding it, is HGH (Human Growth Hormone). HGH is a protein-based poly-peptide hormone which stimulates growth and cell reproduction and regeneration in humans and other animals. Of course steroids help athletes, otherwise why would they take them. If sex didn’t give gratification men wouldn’t want to hump everything that moves. Does HGH actually improve performance enough to be a concern-able difference? Seconds…

Corn evokes images of midwestern values, amber waves and hardworking farmers. It’s too bad that a grain so average in nutrition is the primary source of nutrition for most meat and eggs. There are some scary things going on in the food industry. They’re big, they’re powerful, and they’re controlling what most of America (and because of America’s influence, what a large part of the industrialized world) eats. They hybridize crops for the best yield, genetically modify our food and don’t have to tell us, and hide their product in almost everything on grocery store shelves. And you know what?…

The first month of the Major League Baseball season has given us excitement and some welcome surprises. If someone would have asked me to bet my life on a southern California team that would have the best record a month into the season, the San Diego Padres would have been my fourth choice. I would have said the Los Angeles Dodgers, Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, the N. Hollywood Boys & Girls Club 12 under team, and then the Padres. Some old names have left big impressions in the early going, and when I say “big” I’m not referring to…

I must admit to a bit of righteous indignation upon reading, “What To Eat NOW: The Eggless Diet.” I concur that eggs are cheap, easy and versatile. However, that’s about where I part ways with this blasphemy of the egg. Argument No.1: Are There Really THAT Many Allergies to Eggs? Nutritional Facts 1 Egg; Hard-boiled Calories 211 Total Fat 14g Saturated Fat 4g Cholesterol 577mg Sodium 169mg Total Carbs 2g Sugars 2g Protein 17g 1 Egg; Scrambled Calories 367 Total Fat 27g Saturated Fat 8g Trans Fat 1g Cholesterol 774mg Sodium 616mg Total Carbs 5g Sugars 4g Protein 24g “They”…

Times are tough, but so are you.  You’re determined to skip the pricey personal trainer and trendy gym for something more basic. Believe it or not, all you’ll need to start is the weight of your own body.  After that, we can use things that are practically free to take it to the next level.  And you thought it was expensive to look great! If you want to get big on the cheap, it’s going to take some determination.  It’ll also take perfect technique, so listen up.  Bodyweight exercises are the gold standard of the really fit, and they can…

An interesting thing is happening in the Western Conference playoffs.  The San Antonio Spurs–excuse me, the old-decrepit-on-their-last-leg Spurs–downed the Dallas Mavericks like it was no big deal. How can a relatively young team like the Mavs lose to a team stuck in middle age?  Everyone had their money on Dallas at the beginning of this season and now that money is being wasted. We could go back to the 2006 NBA Finals.  The Mavs lost that series to the Heat after being up 2-0 and leading in the 4th Quarter of Game 3.  However, I don’t think that’s the problem. The…

The NFL is crazy. One day you’re in and the next day you’re out. In the past few days Jason Campbell, Colt McCoy, Taylor Mays and Brady Quinn have found themselves on both sides of this equation. At its core, much of the NFL offseason looks downright cruel. Trusted veterans who have poured their whole careers into a team–cut. High draft picks with promise–traded. Some of these moves are selfish, some are warranted, others are just plain heartless. This soap opera is in full-effect this offseason with the moves concerning Campbell, McCoy, Mays and Quinn. Some moves are good and…

The Jacksonville Jaguars have David Garrard, Maurice Jones-Drew and a young Offensive Line. They also have disgruntled fans and an unrealistically stringent owner. Back in January, Jaguars Owner Wayne Weaver said he wanted Garrard to be more like Peyton Manning. He’s quoted as saying: “I tell a story about Peyton Manning when [Indianapolis] drafted Pierre Garcon and Peyton Manning drove three hours twice a week because this kid couldn’t come to the OTAs and train because of his graduating class,” Weaver recently told the media. “He drove three hours twice a week to throw to this kid, to teach him…

Most people only wish they could move back into the womb, but that is what just happened to SteroidsLive. Hold on tight, now the real fun begins. It’s still going to be a few months before you start seeing the really big changes (and “mum”s the word), but in the mean time you can expect plenty of previews and whispers about all that we have in store for you. I mentioned a few months ago that we’re breaking SteroidsLive – oh yes, we have lots of that to do still for sure – and building it into a true resource…
