I just do my work, try to do everything I can. I don’t weigh in all offseason. I just try to get better, be in better position, be an athlete.
Humpback whales – which can be as long as 60 feet, weigh as much as 40 tons and can live for 50 years – are found in all of the world’s oceans.

Baking is very meditative. It’s precise – you have to weigh out the ingredients, follow it step by step and focus on everything, so it’s just right. It also brings you out of your shell, because if you’ve made a batch of brownies, you share them and its really sociable like that.

All I am saying is that if you want to answer a question, then we need to examine and weigh up the evidence. To me, that’s not dogmatic that’s just… what else would you do?
Coming into my rookie year, I could kind of eat whatever I wanted – you’re really not too concerned about it. But you don’t realize that a pound here and there is really not a good thing. It’s just basic physics: it’s harder to move faster and jump higher when you weigh more.
