Ted Striker: George Zip said that?

Rumack: Yes, he looked at me and said, “Doc,” he said, “Some time, when the crew is up against it, and the breaks are beating the boys, tell 'em to get out there and give it all they’ve got. And win just one for the Zipper. I don’t know where I’ll be then Doc, he said. But I won’t smell too good, that’s for sure.”

Don’t know where he heard it or if he came up with it.

I just always like to think, “Who wants to look normal?” Normal in america is extremely overweight or extremely under.

Whenever I need something to light a fire under my ass no matter how tired I am, I think of the passengers on United Airlines Flight 93 who figured out what was going on and attacked the terrorists holding them hostage. I can only hope that I would have done the same thing in that situation.

But if you don’t believe in the Almighty, you can’t use it.

Or, just remember George Thorogood said it well-

I think I saw this one on T-Nation so pardon me if someone already quoted it.

“Somewhere out there someone is training and when you meet him…you will lose.”
