What happens when a man known for his intense summer workouts picks up the pace? It might be time to turn a new page for Chuckles. He is very dedicated now! I feel badly for mocking him. The media guide is going to write itself. From The Detroit News: http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20120927/SPORTS0102/209270402#ixzz27fmOtZoX
I picture Charlie peddling an excercise bike in a sauna while throwing punches at a heavy bag. My hope is that he loses so much weight that he simply vanishes one day.
Move over Willis Reed. The picture of Charlie G courageously stepping into the sauna while injured has become the defining image of overcoming adversity to me!
This was really sad. Instead of seeing a video about Charlie's schedule, you see a 3 1/2 minute video about an out-of-shape writer wimping out and tossing his cookies. What was the point? It wasn't informative. It wasn't funny.
I hadn't watched the video when I posted the article. I was hoping it was some Kronk Gym type place instead of the glorified pilates studio it was. The video was posted in 2 different articles this AM. The one I posted seemed like a first draft that slipped through cracks but it was more Charlie-centric. It would have been awesome if Charlie was just standing off the writer's shoulder with a towel over his shoulder and scalley cap on like Apollo Reed's cornerman the whole time. He looks ridiculous hitting the heavy bag.
Even if he sucks again this year, I have respect for Charlie for at least working hard to get in shape. It does look like he is doing some pretty intense stuff. We'll have to wait and see if this translates to the basketball court.
Media Day photo. I just ask him via Twitter if he is playing with a chip on his shoulder after getting cut from the Dominican Republic team... lol
LOL! No! .. that would've been hilarious! Andre Drummond also answer me, I asked first how was he doing with the free throws but they didn't answer me that, and then asked something else.
I read Magette just loves working with Arnie. He said that he was planning to retire after this season, but after a couple months with Arnie, he feels like a new man.
