I cleaned out my bag and had 11 throwing shoes in there. Anybody beat that? I don't want to admitt the glove count, but it was very high.

I am sure there is a joke about having a third foot. My guess is somebody stole one looking for puddin'. "How do you throw the weight so high Myles? Its the shoes right?
Its gotta be the shoes |

It's not even the 11 that throws me, why on earth would you need 5+ pairs of shoes in a throwing bag? |

I don't even OWN that many shoes. I have: 1. Tennis Shoes (yes, I still call them that) 2. Cowboy Boots (Tony Lama) 3. Dress Shoes (for work, black) 4. Waders (for the farm) 5. Hammer Boots |

A set of cleats that I started in, a set that I like to throw in, a set of old javelin boots, a set of new javelin boots, hammer boots and one Tannel? The Javelin boots have never been worn. Plus you have to have dark shoes and light shoes for before and after Labor day. I am down to 6 now. Was over 30 in the gloves. Is that a lot?

Ya'll be nice now - the Mule was a Boy Scout and likes to be prepared......obviously bizarrely,psychotically over prepared but prepared none the less. I just dug into my bag gettin ready for Saline - last thrown in the garage after the Texas Swamp games of last month - combine w. humidity and heat and ....well......my dogs kept trying to roll on it.

No, no the hammer handle didn't break. The hammer was broken, as in, it wouldn't go far.

Hey save me the spikes. Spikes are like birthday candles. Plus, with the extra gloves, you could make some of those cool rollerball gloves like James Caan wore. Then the crowd would start repeating SILVERBACK, SILVERBACK, SILVERBACK |

The hammer was broken, I could not tell if it was the handle or the head. I was upset with it, we had a very poor relationship and on the way back home I had to stop for gas. I had just thrown the hammer and I felt I did my part and it did not. So I kicked him to the curb. In the dumpster he went with a cussing. When I came to the next morning, I realized I might need that. I went back and they had emptied the dumpster. Next I borrowed K Monsters. I figured it would be tested and good. I went out for a toss and apparently offended the impliment. On the way home while the gate in the truck was down it found a way out and was never seen again. I have only purchased three of them at this point. I am sure most people have bought many more and this is well below average. |

The use for the extra shoe is obvious. Smackin' punks who LIKE the hammer up side the head!

Ok, I did have a 22lb hammer sneak out the back of my truck one time, I wondered why it ran away. At first, I thought someone stole him, but now I realize he was unhappy. I have 10 hammers, plus 5 home made ones. I now realize that the problem is not me, but all my hammers are broken and that is why I keep getting more, hoping that I find one that is not broken. Is that so wrong! |

It was only 11 shoes in the bag. I have a bunch more in the closet. Has anyone ever tried throwing in a golf shoe? I got a new pair and they look pretty swanky. |

Myles...now you have blown it. We were having an adult conversation about throwing shoes in your gym bag and you brought up the "closet". Golf shoes....how about "hiigh-heels"....?

Hit 16 standing WOB and no one should have the right to say anything about your shoes. This also maybe the first post ever with the word "swanky" |

Swanky - an old term used by late,late,late,later 30's guys to mean totally rad,fly,awesome,bitchin,killer or sweeeeet..........I'll go out on a limb here and say that I would pay money to watch the Alabama Plowmule play golf - swanky shoes or not.....poor little ball. |
