AO


9 men punched the fartsack in the throat so hard that it forced them into the gloom at 4:45 instead of the usual 5:30. In the spirit of the big game last night, I “threw” a little twist into this beatdown: Football cannot touch the ground. No one can hold the football for more than a 10 count. The ball cannot be handed off, only thrown. If the football touches the ground, 10 Mericans OYO. We did A LOT of Mericans.This is the rest of our story:WARMORAMA (Led by Heisman. It was his first hand at the helm and he didn’t disappoint. Cadence calling was perfect, exercise motions during cadence…meh)SSH x15icIST x10 in cadence, maybe?Merkins x20 single count?Squats x10?THANG:Mosey to rock pile (Oh wait, stop at the benches for dips x15ic…move along to stop the barking from the back porch).Circle up with your rocks and the magical deck of cards in the middle.Spades-Skull CrushersHearts-CurlsClubs-Overhead PressDiamonds-SquatsEvery pax picks a card, calls the exercise and associated reps, then everyone rotates one rock to the right…til we got bored. And, we did get bored of doing 7 squats.Mosey to the parallel parking spaces for lunge walk suicides while the gnarliest of goats hit the head.MARYLow Flutter x15icDying Cockroach x12icJ Lo x12icSuperman twice with Greatest American Hero theme.MOLESKIN:-Apologies to Heisman. He had a great warm up planned and I threw a wrench in his perfect implementation with the pigskin variable. We won’t count this as his virgin Q, but he is definitely ready! I was suspicious when he kept looking at his watch during his lead. But, as it turns out, he had the list of exercises on there. Is he young enough to be considered a millennial?-Thanks to Dingo for bringing the football. Not owning one myself, I feel I am failing as a father with a teenage son. Oh and me not owning a football is directly related to my catching abilities.-The deck of cards was a last-minute change to my plan. I was looking for something to roll up in my sleeve and didn’t have a pack of cigarettes. They substituted nicely. I did not, however, realize they were my kids’ magic deck.-Thanks to Eeyore for reminding me about “Supermans? Supermen?” I know it was inadvertently because he was just literally laying on the ground, face down. -Most everyone in this group of pax are great singers. I’m not sure everyone knew the words, though.COFFEETERIALots of great discussion about: -Seizing the day.-Filling our day with what we want so others won’t fill it for us.-Keeping the main thing the main thing.-Our list of Non-Urgent, Important matters versus Urgent, Unimportant ones-Reaching out to each other…to help and for help.-Our friend Schneider.
