funny story about me and he rock

[Matt Schumann]

If you keep track of mypost its no hard to notice that i have a hard time getting intoa goodstong productive routine with strongman, but when ever i cut down, i train and dietmy as off, maybe to the point where it isnt to good... But about 7 months ago was when i started back gaining weight and strength training, for 6 months befor that i was in toa cut down phase and lost over 100 pounds,

A huge part of my training was my running progra at the local travck here in Malden MA.. i use to run 45-60 mins a day doin stairs and around the track. I just recently found out that while iwould run the track the rockwas training there fora new movie he's filmng here in Massachusetts, its a football movie and he would train down at the track everyday with a bunch of arena football players. The guy who over see's the track is a friend of mne and i saw him the other day for the first time in a while. He told me that, when the rock would train the that they would kick everyone out of the track and te field, but they let me stay... I guess the rock complimented me on my cardio to the guy that runs the track and the got into a brief converstaion about my training. Anyways they let me stay and train because i trained hard and i didnt even notice them.... lol I guess i ran right by im a few times, like almost brushing shoulders and i didnt even freakn know haha...

Shortly after he started training there he tore a tendon and couldnt continue to train at the stadium anymore, guess i missed that day , i dont know i just thought thatas a funny story and a bit of a nice compliment

That story is similar to one by a friend of mine. He was on a business trip and got bumped up to first class (this happens when they book at the last minute and the coach fare is the same as first class). When he takes his seat he says hello to the guy next to him but doesn't really speak to him the rest of the trip as he has work to do on his laptop. When they arrive the guy next to him thanks him for being so polite and not talking his ear off and asking a bunch of questions like most guys do. My friend Randy says "no problem, why are you somebody"? He guy says "yea I am Bill Parcells" Randy says "who"? (he is not into football at all). Parcells looks at him like he is from another planet and says his name again, prompting Randy to say something like "OK, nice to meet you". Obviously still not recognizing him but wondering why this guy has such a weird look on his face as he walks away. It was so funny when we told Randy who he was. This must have totally deflated Parcells ego, if that is possible.

Ths little old lady was on an elavator and these 3 big black dudes came on it and accidently bummed into her and she dropped her big cup of quaters or so that she had won in the casino..... They apoogized but she was a little frazled.... next thing youknow theres a knock on her hotel room door.... it was a person from the hotel deivering her a dozen flowers, with 100 dollar bill's attached t each rose (1200 bucks) with a card that read somethng like "sorry we bumped into you, etc....

yeah, that's an old one. the version i heard had eddie murphy on the elevator with jordan and jordan telling murphy "hit the floor" (meaning the elevator button) and the lady, thinking these two black guys were about to rob her, hits the deck spilling all her quarters. the version went on to say that pinned to each of the roses was $100 bill with a note saying "thanks for the best laugh in a long time" or something. total crock
