Re: The Super Bowl Thread
Being in my 50's and playing football in High School and College on top of watching the game on TV since I was 5, plus reading numerous books about football players when I was a kid, I am pretty attuned to how the rules have effected the game. As far as "modern training methods" that era started 40 years ago. Take a picture of a 1975 weight room and then one from 2014, you will see a lot of the exact same equipment. Some of them might have computerized resistance but that just makes them safer, they are the same movements as the machines that had cables, chains and weight stacks. Free weights are the same. Joe Weider's promotion of body building made nutritional supplements and steroids common place in the 70's.
You really have to go all the way back into the early 60's to find guys just eating meat and potatoes and not lifting weights. The first weightlifting program with illegal drugs were introduced in 1963 by Chargers coach Sid Gillman. Training methods are still pretty much the same, the only improvement is probably the illegal drugs are better. That is a wash as an equal amount of players on both sides of the ball are using them, it is the rules being the sole reason why we don't see anymore 13-10 games. |

Great job by NFL security. Hopped on a bus and made it all the way to tv.

Re: The Super Bowl Thread
I do not believe that the game was fixed. But with all of their unforced errors the Broncos sure made it look that way. Pretty pathetic.

Re: The Super Bowl Thread
 Rough night for Denver folks. So bad they had to turn to porn before the end of the game. Lame.

Too bad the younger one turned into a turnover machine. Oh well, the Bears and the Cardinals could always use a new vet back up.

What, your feet fit a branch ?I find it funny that the very QB some of you are making fun of is the same one who some of you wanted in DC 2 years ago .Same argument is starting up again some of you think Wilson is God because he won a super bowl but when it's pointed out Eli has won 2 and 2 MYPs well then those mean nothing ,huh, wonder why that is ?
