Quality, not quantity

If I post here infrequently, petechons posts to his blog at a glacial rate, but when he posts, he goes all out: Inaugural Post: 2005 NPC Jr's

I have been a fan of muscular women for as long as I have been interested in women. Yet, I had never made it to a bodybuilding, figure, or fitness event before now. I am so glad I finally went to one. It was fantastic: a really amazing experience.

Softball

Michigan won the NCAA Softball national championship: Findlay Drives Michigan Past UCLA



Here's a Video highlight real of Michigan's NCAA regionals win.

In other softball news, ESPN's Gene Wojciechowski had the chance to step up to the plate and try to hit against pro softball phenom Jennie Finch: Stepping up to the (softball) plate. He went to find out "what's it like to stand exactly 43 feet away from someone who can create enough arm torque to throw a softball underhand the baseball equivalent of 90-plus mph and be named to "People" magazine's 50 Most Beautiful People."



Wojciechowski continues, "She's tall, about 6-1, and if her handshake were any stronger, I'd have to call Medic Alert."
