I agree with Rut as well as everything Bossman says, but in reality, it isn't an after the game deal anymore. You have to have a 24/7/365 fitness program that keeps you body at a high level and able to take just about anything thrown at it.

If you want to do 7 games on a Friday, you have to put in the work the rest of the week. There's no magic remedy until someone invents a fountain of youth or full leg transplants.

Think about it this way: special forces operators have to keep themselves at a conditioning level similar to elite athletes. We just have to keep ourselves at the level of the mediocre ones!

To be fair, he didn't say 7 games in one day, he said 7 games from Friday to Sunday. Don't get me wrong, that is still a good amount of games and Aggie, your point on fitness is dead on.

Even if that is the case, either you work out to make your body prepared for that, or you stop working those amount of games so that you are not hurting. Unless the pain for a few days is bearable, stop working that much.

No argument from me on that point.

Thanks, Welpe for the correction. I didn't read it closely enough and took Rut's word for it. Perhaps that's another issue.

We have a lot of guys that work 2 JV or Frosh games on Thursday, a varsity game on Friday, and loads of Pee Wees on Saturday -- anywhere from 2-6. So its easy to do 7 in 3 days. I don't do pee wees, though.

Why's that? Too much "Madden Video Game" rule knowledge for you?
