    Unlike Firebase, I am extremely score-oriented, so I’ve been mildly obsessing about howt he Massacre scoring is going to work. Will our scores be scaled to reflect the scaling of the workouts? Is there a score “reward” for doing the workout as prescribed, or close to it? Are we going to give the guys a handicap if they’re so chicken only 5 of them show up? I need answers!

      I personally won’t turn down a handicap. . . .

          No negativity here! But there is a reason they used to name hurricanes only after women. . . .

    This from the Caps morning workout at Kettler:

    “Defenseman Mike Green came onto the ice at around 9:15 this morning, 15 minutes after practice was scheduled to begin. At the end of the skate, Boudreau had Green do some extra wind sprints as the rest of the team looked on.”

    That would have been 150 Burpees if he worked out at MPH. Pussy.

      And it would have been OV (and the rest of the team) doing them, not Green. By the way StuLu, OV lives around the corner from me – love to hit his house at Haloween and “trick or treat” for Caps schwag.

    TENDER ASS PSA:

    guy and gurls of the TAC: today i did my situps with my nylon jacket folded up under my bottom. it was very slippery and i was kinda moving around on the floor as i did them, but my ass feels GREAT postwod. no chafing, no abrasions, no nuthin’. so, taping the crack may not be necessary- try sitting on something slippery. and now you may bring on the jokes.

    keep squattin’!
