Twitter: Micah taking snaps at running back

[Scotman]

I benched 300 in high school and I only weighed 135 pounds when I graduated.

Disclaimer: I didn't bench the 300 pounds all at once. It was cumulative.

Anyone who believes this does not understand Micah's sense of humor

No. But I remember Magic playing center in a playoff game and throwing up 39.

Nobody doubts that Parsons can do it. It's just not smart to risk the best edge player in the league at RB. No position takes a greater pounding. No position is less important. No position is more replaceable.

Too many beers man? Actually it was 42.. with 15 rebounds and 7 assists for good measure.. One of the most amazing performances ever.. Before the game was over he had played all 5 positions on the floor. It's one of the reasons I think people are far too quick to leave Magic out of the GOAT conversation. Basically just because he didn't score in bunches..

It's kinda hard when Magic is on record saying there was MJ, and then there was he and Bird and everyone else. But, yeah, just a ridiculously talented player. That was a special time for the NBA.

We we've seen ample evidence of Magic's talent evaluation from his time in the Lakers' front office.. LOL! Magic just didn't have a scorer's mentality.. He was a point guard who never stopped growing basically. If he had Jordan's or even Bird's scoring mentality I think he could have led the league multiple times.. There was nobody stopping a 6'9" dude with his handles and court vision from getting to the rim any time he wanted to. But that's a discussion for another day on another forum!

I think you could get increments of 10 on the old Universal machine. Those gym machines can fool you... A few years ago our company gym had one of those benches with the guides on the side and that damn thing would allow you to bench a good 50-75 pounds more than you could with free weight.. I found out the hard way when I pumped up over 400 pounds on that machine and started feelin myself.. Then one day while I was at home working out in my garage I piled every plate I owned onto the bar.. It was about 340-ish. It was a struggle just to get it off the rack which should have been my first clue. That thing came crashing down on my chest and damn near killed me. It took every ounce of strength I had just to wiggle it back up to the rack. I didn't even both trying to lock it out.. I was just grateful that I survived..

Yep, if it isn't free weights, it doesn't count... lol.
I've hurt a few "bow-flex" owners feelings pointing out the same thing you mentioned.

LOL.. That reminds me of a training partner I used to have who would put in copious miles on the treadmill and thought he was in good shape. Then one day he agreed to join me on the track. He about died that day.. To his credit he came back for a good 2-3 years with me when our schedules permitted and became one of the best training buddies I ever had. Because we worked out together both in the gym and on the track and really pushed one another..

I was gonna say...Penn State alum/fan here...Micah played RB in high school as well, and was very good at it.

Went to the same high school

stupid

 

[losersgetcute]

Could be called our Lion Pkg on the goal line!

The opposing coach is guaranteed to burn a timeout if Micah goes out there at QB with two TEs like the Belldozer...

 

[Xeven]

Zeke might be good edge rush?

 

[Stsinaz12]

Put Parsons at running back and let's see what he can do.

I don't care what the risk are. My curiosity Trumps everything.

Sure bad knee and all

 

[Amarillofan82]

I would rather have Diggs play WR if we had to pick one player to play another position periodically.

No /

230, you say.
Hmm.
The bar is 45 lbs.
To get to 225 you put (2)45 lb. plates on each side.
So, you're claiming to add 2.5 lbs to get to 230.
Never have I ever seen that done in a gym in 25+++ years.
You'd get laughed out of the free-weight area and told to
go back to nautilus weights with the kids and grannys.

I call BS.

230 is/was my weight , holy cow i knew americans were slower than canadians on the uptake but this one is special LMAO! i never put 2.5 pounders for a flat or incline bench ever, i did put 10's of course! also wow i had no idea the bar was 45 and 2 plates was 225. thanks for the tip lol!

Or maybe you're not being very clear.
Who cares what you weighed? You were talking about benching 225lbs.
Then say you could do 30 at 230.
Either way, I call BS based on your tone.
