The Never Ending Saga of the Colored Grippers
Like most of you, we received notice today from the Fictional Clubhouse, that 15 of the $45 colored handle grippers remain. It sure is taking a long time to sell these "hot" collector's items. ;)
But do we have to be subjected to further insult that the already overpriced colored handled grippers are going up in price by $10.00, if we don't act fast?
We wonder what these magical colored handled grippers will be selling for in August.
Join us in relegating these grip trinkets to the dust-bin of grip irrelevance. ;)

Kevin Nash swats down these 2 pinheads with logic and coherent thought.
The broad filling in for Sean Hannity, proves to be a bigger moron, than Hannity, when it comes to this subject.

A Glorious Victory for the USofA
America reclaims the hot dog eating crown at Nathans. If this is not a tale of human drama I do not know what is.
Pay attention to the slow motion vomiting.

DieselCrew Sledge Hammer Conditioning E-Book
I just started perusing the DieselCrew Sledgehammer Conditioning e-Book. It's an info packed 49 pages. These cats know what they are doing. I have never failed to pick up a tidbit, whether it's in a 30 second video clip, or one of their tomes. They have competition backed credentials, so you know you won't be wasting your time as you would with the all the Un-Proven guru charlatans on the net.
Get over to the Gripboard and click the Contributor Bug and make a donation, depending on what level you pick you will get a DieselCrew KettleBell e-book. I'll be diving into the Kettlebell book later.
While you're in a forum supporting mood, get over to George's Moving Sale at Grippermania and buy a fucking shirt.

Tuesday - 7/3
530AM - Woke up with that "pre-sore throat feeling"
Romanian Deadlifts w/ Trap Bar. Did not feel like walking out in 48 degree air to hit reverse hypers.
Grip Training
Right Hand - Plate Pinch
Left Hand - Blob50 work
Finished with single hand Titan's telegraph
Felt sick and tired. ;)
I just perused the New Ironmind catalog, what the fuck? Page 12 states that if you want to "pretend" you are stronger, set the gripper to an inch? Do they not publish a book that has Nathan Holle demonstrating his technique where he sets the gripper to 1 inch? Is he pretending? We will review further. We suspect that there is a bit of "Fictional Hand" creep as well as the influence of some old-timers who feel that their accomplishments are being handily surpassed, and have a need to be remembered.
We have a sneaking suspicion as to who the hand model is.
Again this is just our opinion, if you disagree, start your own friggin blog. ;)
And who in the FUCK cares that the RED and BLUE Overpriced Fictional Hand Grippers are still available? 52.00 fucking dollars shipped? Are grip people that fucking stupid?
Smarten the frig up people.
Carry on.

Chris Benoit - Date Rape Drug Speculation
This is getting stupid now.
From the AP:
...But in the wake of the lurid events that played out in suburban Atlanta last weekend, the New York Daily News has learned that another drug may have been part of a deadly cocktail that could have caused Benoit to snap. According to sources familiar with his drug regimen, Benoit was a known abuser of the drug gamma-hydroxybutyrate — or GHB, also known as the “date-rape drug.” Benoit was known to have used GHB with former wrestler “Gentleman” Chris Adams when both men competed for the now-defunct World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in the late `90s. They used the drug together until Adams’ death in 2001, according to sources who knew both men, and friends say Benoit was still using it as recently as two years ago....
