I managed to get up at 5:00 on Saturday morning to play hoops… Not sure if I was motivated by the breakfast after or watching SW and FT play actual hoops instead of watching shrek bang around for the larva I mean ball..
So I had two good games.. My idea of two good games is I didn't hurt anyone I grabbed a few boards and I made a shot.. I was just wondering if this was too good to be true.. I had lost some lbs I was feeling good and I was going to have a hot breakfast in less than an hour.. Well it was too good to be true I was pretending that I could still make quick plays on the basketball court so when a poorly thrown lob was thrown up the court I was going to make a quick cut and steal the ball.
Well in case I have not told you this before.. I am not in real good shape and I am smidge overweight.. So when I lunged for the ball I really thought someone kicked me or tripped on my calf because I heard this sort of low pop noise.. But when I looked back no one was there. It felt like some had taken an ax and hit me in the calf. It was like having the worst charlie horse of your life.. So like a walrus sliding across an iceberg I mannaged to pull myself to the edge of the court. If crying would have eased the pain I would have done it but I couldn't.. This is sad to admit but as I was slithering across the court I was wondering if I could still make breafast this morning.. I am not trying to be funny it just shows how and why the big D remains heavy.. So I have been icing it and trying to stay off but it basically feels like I have had a charlie horse since that morning..
I am going to blog on this tommorow but it looks like the big heavy needs to hang it up on any sport that requires sudden movement.. I think you will see me with those really odd looking white walking shoes in a mall near you..
I have not broken any eating rules but I need to feed the rage soon..
I am big angry and from this point forward I have a torn cow.. You get the joke just thought it was too easy..
OUT

Was this the same injury you incurred playing with your kids a while back?
I was there.
Let's put it this way, at HEAVYD's weight and age, he should not be sprinting....which is what i told him. Believe me, I probably play at about 60% most of the time, just to avoid injuries like this. See, HEAVYD hasn't come to the realization yet that he is not the athlete that he was 15 years ago (100 pounds ago), or even 5 years ago (25 pounds ago). The most important thing to realize once you hit 30, is that winning takes a backseat to not getting hurt. Now HeavyD will be out for 2 monhts, and will put the weight back on because he can't exercise.
In terms of the comment by $1.25, he actually hurt his hamstring racing against his 18 year old cousin. same thing, you can't go 100% anymore HEAVYD, believe the dropoff for you from 100% to 50% won't be that noticeable anyway...
i can't run fast enough to hurt myself anymore. that's one benefit of being really fat and out of shape
