Well, well, I had a wonderful time live-blogging the BCS National Championship Game on Twitter (yes, I have a Twitter account) and I just had some major revelations during the game that not only have implications in college football but I think these revelations have MAJOR implications for the NFL Wildcard round this weekend.  There’s a lot that we can say about the teams playing this weekend, but what happened in between Texas and Alabama speaks volumes about what CAN happen between the Eagles & Cowboys, Cardinals & Packers, Bengals & Jets, and the Patriots & Ravens.  Let’s talk first…

I apologize for the 4th or 5th time for disappearing, but due to plans of getting married, yes I am a lucky man, and my lack of patience for stupidity within the steroid community, I had to take a few weeks off. This is at the cost of my numbers of readers a day, and I thank the readers that stayed. First off I have to state that the ignorance of some within this community is unreal and you really need to get a grasp on the basic information behind the stuff you are injecting into your body. If you…

Alabama and Texas go head-to-head for the BCS National Championship on Thursday in a game that gained credibility with Boise State’s win over TCU in the Fiesta Bowl.  Though this is not a reason that Bama will beat Texas it is a reason for us to take greater notice of this game.  Boise State was ranked lower than TCU and TCU was in the middle of of a chase for a spot in the National Title Game.  TCU was the team that played great defense and they got outlasted by Boise State in a manner that can only be described…

He WAS “The One” (if you like “The Matrix” then you know what I mean) and he won the Heisman in a landslide, but the whole time he was propping up Urban Meyer’s team.  In 2008 when Florida lost to Ole Miss he gave the speech to end all speeches and his Gator team went on a roll that ended in their 2nd national championship in 3 seasons.  The transcript of that speech is immortalized on a wall outside the entrance to the University of Florida’s new football facility at Florida Field.  There is nothing so venerated that came from…

In my last article, Avoid any excuse to Get Fit, I talked about easy ways to train at home without the use of any equipment. I explained why it is important for an overweight person who wants to lose weight successfully through exercise to go slowly so as not to over exert and in this article I want to discuss why cardiovascular exercise is important with weight loss. Doing either weight training or cardiovascular training alone will not build a stronger, lean body. Cardio and weight training must be performed together or on alternate days to achieve long-lasting results. Weight…

Just a few years ago, it seemed as though boxing was a dying sport. Recently, washed up fighters like Evander Holyfield and Roy Jones Jr. have desperately sought to drag out their careers with the hope of bringing home a few more paychecks. As the sport has been surpassed in popularity by MMA, a handful of fighters have kept boxing relevant. No two have been more intergral than Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. Now, with their potential March showdown in jeopardy, the boxing world desperately needs their mega fight to happen as planned. Pacquiao and Mayweather, widely considered the top two pound for…

Massage is an important part of the training process for many purposeful athletes who want to achieve swift recovery after extensive training or competition. Massage also plays an important role in injury prevention due to overuse or overstraining the body and in the rehabilitation process after injury. Every athlete has experienced heighten muscle tension from training and competing. The usual signs of such side-effects are limited performance, reduce flexibility and increase risk of injury not to mention pain. Pain is the result of unbalanced muscles becoming inflamed because they were not handled properly over a long period of time, which…

There is simply no excuse not to work out because exercise can be performed anywhere. Motivation is what many people need, so training with a partner or listening to cool music will certainly help. What if you do not have a gym membership but want to get fit for the New Year. It would be great, would it not, to lose weight on your own without having to join a gym and then unleash the ‘new svelte you’ before your mate in a couple of months time. Serious weight loss does not take long to accomplish with deep effort, and…

In throwing this idea out to one of my superiors here at steroidslive.com I said “And I’ve got this great idea for a column on players playing within themselves” and his response was simply “LMAO”.  Honestly, I didn’t really that sounded as bad as it did when it wasn’t being said by a professional athlete so I just want to ask you to hold your laughter as I honestly (and seriously) try to delve into my explanation for this oft used phrase.  {I’m hoping that we don’t run into a situation like in “The Usual Suspects” where all 5 men…

Flash knockouts may get the glory, but to me, there is nothing more awe-inspiring than a beautiful submission.  To forcefully put your opponent in a position where he must surrender or risk unconsciousness, broken limbs or agonizing pain is a feat that few sports can rival.  2009 was not exactly a banner year for spectacular submissions, but there were a few that stood out from the pack.  As I said before, submissions in high profile fights are on the same level as any other event to me.  All that matters is that what happened is exceptional.  Creativity gets bonus points.…
