No Bull: I’m Not Sexist After All
Internet Fight of the Week: I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the epic throwdown between Lyle and Leigh. Just look at the haymakers! My offer still stands of free registration to the 2009 JPFitness Summit to whomever wants to bro-down with Leigh in person over the quiz. However, I don’t think anyone will come, and in-person bro-downs are such a letdown from internet ones because the parties involved are usually 20 lbs heavier, considerably uglier and infinitely more socially awkward than they portend themselves to be.
Ridiculous Magazine Cover of the Week: John Cena is on the cover of Muscle and Fitness. First off, his movie looks terrible. Secondly, what kind of finishing move is the five knuckle shuffle? That wouldn’t hurt a midget. At least the diamond-cutter has the remote possibility of knocking someone out. Thirdly, did he really just say he has always been “naturally strong” and that he didn’t use steroids? Come on Congress, it’s time to give wrestling the baseball treatment. Or maybe it’s the magic jorts?
Ridiculous Insinuation of the Week: Also from Men’s Fitness. I will say that a “I’m white so this is very uncomfortable for me” pickup line could be gold if coupled with a pit-stained plaid button down shirt and ill fitting khakis. (Anyone else pick up on the “When I was younger, I wouldn’t become friends with a guy until after we were already at it,” and the “”When a woman is too easy, men lose interest really fast,” quotes?)
Article That Should Never Have Been Written of the Week: What the fuck? Who feels that this is so groundbreaking that it deserves a “spotlight?” And apparently they were afraid to type “masturbate” into google. Nothing like getting pwned about dick grabbing.
Stupid Lede That Should Never Have Been Written of the Week: If this was written about a male athlete, would she be writing about his dick size? I realize that sex is always going to be a selling point in women’s sports, but articles like this do nothing to legitimize women’s basketball. And if a man wrote this, he’d have his perverted ass fired over charges of sexism.
Random Non Fitness Thought of the Week: My dog chased down and killed his first squirrel this week. My baby is growing up. I am so proud.
