Rodney Stuckey drinks milk

Stuckey has milk

A PR company sent me this picture of Rodney Stuckey making an appearance at a Detroit middle school on Tuesday. I wasn't going to post it, but then I read the press release and felt guilty about deleting it. Hey, if I occasionally push Canadian Club on my readers, it's only right that I also endorse something that's actually good for you, too. Press release:

Rodney Stuckey, guard for the Detroit Pistons will be at Remus Robinson Middle School on Tuesday, March 10, rallying students to get fit, encouraging them to sign-up for the Get Fit By Finals Challenge and presenting the school with $1,000 "got milk?" Get Fit Grant to help them implement health and fitness programs. In addition, Remus Robinson Middle School is among thousands of other schools nationwide that have received special Get Fit activation kits that includes expert fitness and nutrition videos, tips and drills from the NBA, and posters and banners featuring NBA and WNBA All-Stars Chris Paul and Diana Taurasi for school cafeterias and gyms that will urge teens to get fit.

"Exercise and good nutrition helped me achieve my goal of playing in the NBA and maintaining the high-level of fitness required to stay at the top of my game," says Stuckey, a 2007 first round draft pick by the Pistons. "Along with other top athletes, fitness and nutrition experts, I'm excited to help teens reach their own personal best and help them Get Fit By Finals."

Plus, for what it's worth, I actually drink a ton of milk. I don't use little shot glasses like these kids, though; I save those for the Canadian hooch.

Laughton, your best yet. You should send it to MFWB’s agent.

I drink chocolate milk but not regular milk. Regular milk is good with cereal. I switched to 2% milk too, not because I’m trying to cut back on fat, because 2% keeps about a week longer than whole milk in the fridge and I got tired of that last little bit of milk being a bit iffy. Welcome to Milk Talk with joejoejoe!

Fun fact: Canadians and most of the world spell it ‘whisky’ while the Irish and Americans spell it ‘whiskey’. However you spell it, kids love Canadian Club with milk!

You switched DOWN to 2% from whole milk? barf

I can’t drink anything above skim anymore, and even then, all I can think about is the udder puss and somatic t-cells that make up like 25% of what we call “”http://www.milksucks.com/pus.asp" rel="nofollow">milk."

I love me some Rodney, but does this mean that drinking milk will cause me to lose my lethal ability to get into the paint and aggressively finish off the drive after taking a bump?

Personal Pet Peeve: Milk Mustache

Don’t get me wrong, I love milk but I’ve always hated the Milk Mustache, it just seems disgusting to me.

by Diablo on Mar 11, 2009 10:52 AM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Diablo, I personally prefer the kool aid mustache.

I do the dance daily with osteoporosis and my delicate bones by not drinking milk, at all. I can’t stand milk. I don’t eat cereal that much anymore, but when I did I used milk only because there’s no suitable replacement.

Laughton,

If I was MFWB’s agent, at my next contract negotiation with “MFWB” in the name field.

Stuckey was on Mike Tirico’s radio show yesterday morning talking about the “Fit by the Finals” campaign.

He’s a good interview. Although he doesn’t say anything groundbreaking, he doesn’t stick to cliches either.

Milk is not necessarily good for you. In fact regular homoginized cow’s milk drinken in excess of a glass a day is bad for a lot of people. More than a couple of glasses a day of regular homoginized milk is bad for just about everyone not just those that are lactose intolerant.

Regular homoginized milke is extremely high in cholesteral and fat. Both of which will in excess of a daily minimal amount will most likely kill you before your time.

Cow’s milk is good for infants and kittens. In fact cow’s milk is not good for adult cats anymore than it is good for adult humans.

Beer is actually healthier for adults than regular homogizied cow’s milk is.

Mike, you’re gonna come in here and disparage milk? What are you some sort of pinko commie? It’s downright unAmerican, that sort of talk.

by Keegan on Mar 11, 2009 1:08 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Holy shit, PS, LMAO.

The cookies have completely frozen milk out of snack-time. Milk is only getting burn at breakfast. Milk needs be moved before it expires.

TRADE MILK NOW.

Boney,

There was a time when I was younger where I would absolutely not drink a drop of milk. But as I started getting older, I started noticing I wasn’t getting any bigger or taller. So over the years I’ve kind of forced myself into liking milk. But still, the Milk Mustache is just nasty.

PS wins this thread.

The Pistons should design their offense around Amir. They should allow him to deform the defense off the dribble and surround him with shooters.

That’s horrible of Stuckey, trying to kill those children. He should be going through elementary schools promoting beer…or perhaps Canadian Club…

I agree that PS wins this thread.

Well done Matt. And if I can grow up to be big and strong like you just by drinking milk, well then pass the gallon jug.

Thanks, MP and Shinons. But we should also acknowledge this gem, courtesy of coachDP (who I think is part Cro-Magnon):

milk not only taste GOOD, but also make you FEEL good. just epinion. to avoid SPOILED milk, always SMELL and look for CHUNKS.

by PS on Mar 11, 2009 3:16 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Yes, that was also fantastic. A very strong runner up in my “epinion.” Many points to coachDP.

Sorry about the off-topic post here but I found a clip of Joe Dumars in an interview going over the season as awhole.

It was taken late last week and I don’t know if anyone else has posted it yet, if so sorry about the redundancy.

Interesting to push milk at a group of people who are known to have adverse reactions to cow’s milk. I have yet to meet an African American who has no problems drinking milk, no matter the fat content. I am white and can’t drink it. I use soy. I was fed soy formula as a baby. And knowing what is fed to the cows in this country, you might not want to drink the milk either.

Breast milk is best. Then make sure your kids eat fortified foods as toddlers and up. Soy milk is also good and easy to cook with (I would never drink it in a glass).

And the older you get, the less tolerant your body will be of milk.

Soymilk is worse tasting than cow milk.

Great! Too bad dairy milk is actually terrible for humans.
