    ^I did the math there, 12 plates X 45 lbs + the barbell = 585. Nice try. You didn't fool anyone. I'll give you a high five for taking the time to post the pic. Keep going unitl that bar bends. And at those weights get a spot!

    ^Yes, I did squat over 21 plates in fact. But because I didn't take a picture, I cant continue saying it, because no one cares and I surely don't care enough to keep pushing it or to take the damn pic and end all doubt. So that's why I high-fived the guy for his pic. Plus this thread isn't about which fans can lift what.

    Very Nice.

    I stopped at 500 lbs even. 5 plates + 2.5's. Most I ever got it was 4 times on my 5th set.

    Does anyone know of any specific reason why JR isn't returning kicks anymore? Did he fumble or something? Where I live, I don't see any Titans games except for the national broadcasts, so I don't know what's been going on. I know he returned kicks two games for a total 9 returns for 181 yards. That's not great, but it's not terrible either. I'm just wondering if he was on the field but the kickoffs just went to the other side, or if he wasn't on the field at all.

    Are Mark Jones and Jason McCourty just better return men? Hopefully, in time, they'll find something for him to do if he can help the team.

    He doesn't suck at it, but he doesn't excel at it either.

    He looked great in the Dallas preseason game where he was decisive and hit the gaps. In the regular season, he seemed much more tentative to me. Maybe it was as much the blocking (since the Titans have had little success in the kick return game so far) but, with a professional returner back on the roster, they'll want to use him.
     
  9. I suspect it's a lack of speed. He's not real slow, but he's not explosive. He really had just the 1 good return in the preseason. And he got run down from behind on that one.

    Presumably it's not his vision or running ability, as those are his strengths as a RB, but not just any RB can be a good kick returner.

    Ok, I see. Are you referring to Jones? Was he injured or something?
