In football, I think we're in for a treat. Maybe Mike Leach:

In wrestling it will be slightly more dubious. Recruiting the top high school wrestling talent to strap on their shoes at MN has been a huge challenge for the Gophers. They've recruited and lost some of the nation's best wrestlers including Marcus LeVesseur, Destin McCauley, Matt Mincey, Tyler Lehman, and so on.

Finding a coach that can get Minnesota's best to strap on the maroon and gold singlet will be an interesting task.

If the MN athletic department gets it in gear we could be in store for a major revitalization at all levels of Football and wrestling.

Alright. I saved a ton of my old bookmarks from high school a couple weeks ago and now I'm going to put up a list of websites I use now and don't want to lose. This list doesn't include things like ESPN which I won't forget.

I started building a cross training program for high school football players that includes
joining the wrestling team.

Wrestling is a great way to get better at tackling, improve body control, and strength. After practice, lose the wrestling shoes (they cause shin splints) and wear running shoes. The cardio done on high school wrestling teams is generally much more grueling than a football practice's conditioning.

Circuit training for wrestling workouts are key. They generate fast twitch muscle fiber simulate wrestling and football well. Jumping rope, tire sprints, and cartwheels are other ways to gain more body control and foot speed. Don't forget to wear headgear when you're wrestling - you don't want to damage your ears.

well the team is just about ready to wrap up training camps around the country. Im pretty excited to see how they do this year.

We're going to catch a late round of frisbee golf down at minnehaha.

My girlfriend and I are taking on my buddy Darnell and his girlfriend Carrie. The last time we played Darnell score a hole in one on hole 7 so let's just hope that doesn't happen again! Darnell played high school football against me when he was at Burnsville.

I met Brock Lesnar today at his gym. He is a really, really big dude. He said they need to make him custom MMA gear because he is too big for all of the standard available sizes. He was in two sessions - one was BJJ and the other was training in various wrestling moves.

I went up to my first preseason wrestling practice at the school. One of the kids showed up in a singlet and shoes so we had to explain to him that those were only for tournaments.

Great Day!

Just about to head out and do some fishing and boating on Minnetonka. My buddy Bob recently purchased a place on the lake and we've been going over there to watch the MMA & UFC fights lately.

Bob was into wrestling in high school but quit before he began wrestling in college and started an internet marketing company.

I think my favorite thing to do when we're out boating is to wake board. I've gotten pretty decent at it over the summer and and do flips and spins in the air now. Still a ways off from catching Bob, but he's taught me a lot about the various was you need to move to complete the moves.

Bob told me that the Apple Valley wrestling room was flooded because someone hit a sprinkler head with a dodge ball during a wrestling camp! Apparently there was about $80,000 in damages sustained.

My girlfriend just got a pair of violet colored contacts - it has to be one of the strangest colors ever (besides those Halloween contacts that have smiley faces and what not). The color looks so unnatural, but, they are rather pretty.

That android phone I got to check out the other day was the G2 - Google's next phone!
