Why do you "hit the wall" in a marathon around mile 20? I know, that's when you supposedly run out of glycogen. But the numbers I've seen don't make sense:

Your body stores about 2000 calories worth of glycogen, and it burns about 100 calories per mile. So 2000 / 100 = 20 miles.

But I thought running at a moderate pace burns a combination of glycogen AND fat. So why do you run out of glycogen at 20 miles? Wouldn't it take longer?

I want to hear from all you LSU and SEC fans and Buckeye haters the most. Then I will repost this question the day after Ohio State beats LSU by two touchdowns and personally send each of you a message laughing in your faces. So lets hear it....

Here is where you can find 2+3 girls and a cup.

^^^^^^^^^It is PG rated.

For a real question:

If every hockey player in the NHL only made $200,000 per year, do you think most of them would still play?

Which makes me think:
Do you think they would all take off to play in another league?
Do you think the Stanley Cup would lose its luster?
Do you think the NHL would still be fun to watch?
Do you think sponsorship/advertising funds would go down?

For more than half of the season, there wasn't even a doubt on Tom Brady shattering Peyton Manning's single season TD record of 49. The expected result was that Tom Brady would get 54 TD's.

But he has been choking a bit in the second half of the season. Okay, maybe he wasn't choking when he got 5 TD's against the Buffalo Bills, but other than that, he hasn't been doing all too great. He has 41 TD's. With 4 games remaining in the season, Tom Brady needs to get atleast 2 TD's in each game, (to tie the record), and 3 in atleast one game to beat the record. He has a very well chance of not getting that score of TD's the way he's playing right now. What do you think?

Who was soooooooo disappointed in the outcome of last night's game? Tom Brady played like crap and didn't deserve to win.. he must have a halo over his head this season.. Baltimore totally deserved that win last night to break the patriots undefeated record. I'm sick of NE.

H&R PROTECTOR HOME DEFENSE SHOTGUN
18.5" Barrel
5 round capacity
Chambers 2 3/4" and 3" loads
Black synthetic stock with recoil pad and swivel studs

http://www.academy.com/index.php?page=content&target=products/outdoors/hunting/shotguns&start=0&selectedSKU=0350-02021-5180

This looks like a decent shotgun for home defense. I've looked in Pawn Shops, and I can't find anything that would be decent for home defense. Mostly long and bulky guns, and their too much money. Does this look like a decent gun? I'm just trying to get people's opinions.

I've also checked all the WalMart's around my area and none of them sell guns.

I don't want to buy a gun that's going to fall apart on me, I just want something that I can throw in my closet if I need to use it in case of a home invasion, and something I can take to my Grandpas lakehouse in the woods every 2 years or so.

Thanks guys! Btw, is that gun a 12 gauge? How do I tell? By the chambers size?

Who do you consider the best tight end in the league?

Me personally no trying to be biased but Jason Witten is hands down the best.

2007-12-04 08:36:58 · 24 answers · asked by Anonymous in Football (American)

Has anyone stopped to think maybe he "can't" run between the tackles because the Saints' offensive line sucks? It's also pretty tough to rack up yards OR wear out the defense when you only get 13 carries a game. I don't think it's so much the PLAYER as it is the SYSTEM. Put Bush in Minnesota and he's a 1,500 yard rusher.

He had 1,300 yards, 88 receptions, and 9 touchdowns as a rookie. How do you call that a bust?

No way this should have ever happened. This is the man who took the Dodgers out of Brooklyn 50 years ago, and really has never been forgiven.

and why is MLB recognizing this guy, when they fail to let Gil Hodges into the HOF? Thats definitely a slap in the face to Brooklyn and New York City.

Hodges was a beloved Dodgers player in te 1940's and 1950's and managed the 1969 World Champion Mets, the team that replaced the Dodgers after O'Malley stole them from Brooklyn.

The is a bad move on the part of the HOF.
