yep another of those it’s not a football blog, except when it is. That tends to be when they lose. And, in this case, because I’m too verbose for Twitter on this. There will be more on topic and on the snowpocalypse later. I’ll never be convinced that Tom Coughlin or Eli are the anti-christ, [...]

Shades of Mediocrity
October 10th, 2010 · Comments Off
NFL. Weight Loss. Life. My attempt at blogging. Anything but the Yankees. Don’t get me wrong, I’m absolutely thrilled with the Giants being 3-2 and two strong wins, but there are a lot of crap teams in the NFL. Not crap as in “oh my god they’re awful”, but crap as in “really? You didn’t [...]

So now we’re after Reese’s head too?
October 2nd, 2010 · Comments Off
Huh? I don’t agree with, but I can at least understand, some of the logic behind calling for Tom Coughlin’s head. People are frustrated with on field product and it’s on Coach to make players play. Fine. Don’t think it’s Coach’s fault that there’s been some sloppy and unprofessional (ripping helmets off) play, but I [...]

Vick and the Eagles
September 21st, 2010 · Comments Off
I seem to be one of the few people wholly unsurprised by the change from Kolb to Michael Vick. In the week 1 loss to the Packers I mentioned (tweet 1, 2, 3 4and 5) that I didn’t see Kolb as the starting QB. A stopgap ala Leinart/Anderson, but not a franchise QB ala McNabb. [...]

…except when it is one. and it has been one in the past too. It also tends to go back to its roots and turn into a travel blog, there may be more of that later. Lots more photos of the trip. Public link should work – if you have any issues please let me [...]

Monster AP Day
September 11th, 2010 · Comments Off
What was that I said the other day about diminishing activity points?! MONSTER day today w 1487 calories burned, good for 14 APs. The thing is? I totally could have gone longer. It started after my Weight Watchers meeting this morning (up point 2, totally expected after some not great food choices this week and [...]

It’s all about the percentages
September 11th, 2010 · Comments Off
% Pounds Lost Date 10 20.9 4/27 WI 20 41.8 7/28 WI 25 52.25 30 62.7 33 68.97 40 83.6 When I first joined Weight Watchers I was curious how they set mini goals as percentages. I shouldn’t say I like absolutes as I still haven’t set a goal, but I really don’t like %s. [...]

Can I get APs for stressing over my fantasy football league?
September 8th, 2010 · 2 Comments
because really, I’ve killed a ton of brain cells on that this week, with no reward as of yet I’m so glad it’s football season, I just wish it was year-round. On the plus side, my gym is getting Direct TV which means NFL Network. WooHOO! Just like this summer where I began spending more [...]

a good day *and* a photo I don’t hate?
May 2nd, 2010 · Comments Off
I’m still bouncing over meeting Eli Manning this morning. Gatorade/GNC had an event for National Signing Day here in NYC and I went and lined up. Wasn’t as crazy as some who camped out over night but I stood for three hours in the sun. Can I get some add’l APs for that? I didn’t [...]
