Le'ron Mcclain

Ugh.. Mike Preston. Blahhh

It is a fact though that he has gained about 20 lbs since the season ended.

[quote name='ravensgirl88' post='196423' date='Jun 1 2009, 10:36 AM']You'd be suprised. Every week he's sending out different Emails about clubs he's promoting and every personal picture i've seen of him is with a drink in his hand. Im not judging! Just stating what I i've seen. Take it is you wish.[/quote]

maybe they're slimfasts?!?!?


But if that's the case, then he's writing his own future. He knows the situation he's in. 3 backs... competing for playing time. I know that players have to do a certain amount of community work, so if promoting clubs is the way he gets his hours or work in that's fine with me. But the drinks... yeah, might wanna lay off those! Either way, if he loses touches he'll have only himself to blame. But that's why they play the game on the field. July is still a ways off! And then you've got those oh-so-meaningful preseason games!

Maybe he is just bulking up since he knows he will be more of a FB this season...is this a possibility? or the wrong kind of "bulk"

I believe it was against the rules of this board to ever quote Mike Preston. As many people above have said... it wasn't a FACT. That was just Mike Preston doing his usual manipulative journalism and wording it in a way that he hopes many people will take the wrong way. And sometimes he just flat out lies.

I was just saying thats how I knew about both of those...not claiming the truth...just quoteing a "source" be it a bad one or not...

Yea becuase he DID ask

"HOW DO YOU KNOW THIS?"

Question, How does anyone know anything for fact? We really dont unless we know first hand!

[quote name='Beninato' post='196265' date='May 31 2009, 06:10 PM']I for the life of me can't understand how athletes are out of shape. You get paid millions of dollars to stay in shape and work out during the off-season. You have no other commitments, is it so hard to hit the gym for a few hours a day and eat right MOST of the time?[/quote]

Maybe if LeRon was getting paid millions instead of hundreds of thousand, he would stay in shape.

With millions you can hire someone to work out for you, with hundreds of thousand, you have to do it yourself!

[quote name='RAVENOUS' post='196268' date='May 31 2009, 06:15 PM']eh, le'ron's had some sort of excuse every year.
his first year, he had to finish his degree and couldn't keep in shape. ok makes sense.
next year he just had a baby born and couldn't keep in shape. im glad for you leron but i think you can still go to the gym.
this year, we dont know yet. i hope this doesn't end up to be a common trend, b/c it ain't good for him.[/quote]
If Le'Ron McClain was carrying 20 extra pounds coming into trainning camp last year, I think he should be allowed to enter every trainning camp 20 pounds over weight.

I am willing to give the guy a break, as long as he is ready to go for the regular season.

I'm willing to cut him a little break if he shows up in the season ready to go. Who knows maybe his offseason of twinkies and ho hos are his secret to success.

I dont know if you're looking at a different picture, but the guy in black all the way to the left in picture 8 is most definitely Mark Clayton...

I'm looking at the same picture as you are and the guy in black on the left is Kelley Washington. They look a lot alike, but it is not Mark Clayton.

[Alexir]

Yeah thats Kelley, Mark has a more broader nose and is a little shorter.

[quote]On the other side is fullback-halfback Le'Ron McClain, who [b]looks[/b] about 20 pounds over his playing weight. This might be a problem if he doesn't get in better condition when training camp starts.[/quote]

Looks being the key word. Mike Preston's crediability is zero. Unless he actually saw the numbers on the scale, this is a none issue.
