Bayside High School Is Awesome

I love @jeremyfoland sending out the weekly “Who’s Qing” tweet because about every 4th week or so I look and say, “Oh, I’m Qing this week.” And speaking of Hotspot, we’ll get back to him a little later. Good crowd of 21 PAX today, including 2 FNGs from out of state. The FNGs came with Grease so I knew they’d be athletes and were probably use to being in action. Gave the disclaimer and we were on our way.

Wheelbarrows and Requests

8 men gathered in the gloom of Salem Park this morning with one thing on their mind: “please, Lord, just not a Murph.” Fear not, soldiers. With half the Pax fresh off the CSAUP, YHC had nothing but love, respect, and the IR on his mind. Indeed, YHC’s co-site Q finds himself on the IR (more on that in a moment). Alas, YHC “McCant” let any Pax off easy, and so into the gloom we set. [Read More]

BH Benchmark Day!

A few SSH, merkins, calf stretches and good mornings was all we needed (no arm circles today boys…). [Read More]

Little of this, little of that

9/28/17 Rumors were amidst the PAX this morning that there had been some Q shopping to avoid another Benchmark day with YHC. Dismayed as they were, YHC decided to save for a later time, thanks to the beat down given by Shank and McCants on opening day for Full Metal Jacket., AKA The Murph. WARM-UP Mosey west on Hunter Street to the Baucom Elementary bus parking lot for some SSH, Merkins, calf stretches, and good mornings. [Read More]
