Default Julio Franco -- foul genocide

Check out this article on the nearly 50-year-old (we think) Julio Franco and his breakfast routine. 20 egg whites and a vegetable supershake. Talk about G-flux! Here's another article describing his 5,000 calorie-a-day nutrition plan, with six weekly workouts and various recovery and prehab routines.

So what do you think -- will Johnka still be gleaming the cube in the year 2021?

He only eats organic. He's in amazing shape. Shows what real hard work can do for you.

They don't inject the chickens with hormones to make them, or the eggs, bigger, tastier, whatever.

I don't know, after slamming into a ramp going 20+ miles an hour and nearly breaking my hip two days ago at the EXPN park, I limped away mumbling "I'm getting too old for this shit".

Having said that, I'm off to the Westminster bowl for my lunch break
