    Ha, Ha.  This is so funny.  I showed this to few people at work.  They asked me where I found it and I told them from here.  The reply was "You and your effing Pearl Jam".  It was well worth it.  Funny stuff.

    I find it more captivating than watching the US men's national soccer team.  These are the true American heroes our children need

    That actually sounds like a somewhat legit idea. Hilarious, but definitely well within the bounds of real competitive sport.

    I have actually seen people backwards walking and running ... my guess is that it strengthens a different muscle group...I don't run, so I don't know...
