Walk with Your Doc!

Full disclosure… the doctor you met in the story on Postgame is a great friend of mine. I thought his idea of Walk with Your Doc was so good, we had to tell people about it and hopefully the idea will catch on!

For now, check out his website for more health tips and to learn a little more about Dr. Michael Moreno affectionately known as Dr. Mike.

Start Your Engines: Chargers Linebacker Kevin Burnett is all Revved up in One on One!

I love it when a player is honest and opens up about their life and defining moments, but Kevin Burnett surprised me with just how much he’s thought about his life’s journey. He is big, bold and quite the philosopher.

The crew and I had an interesting start to the day – their street was being worked on, so we had to haul the gear about a good ¾ of a block on a fairly warm October day. Once in their lovely home, and set up, we dove in to his life story and learned a lot about his background and his inspiration.

Not a lot of people are familiar with Kevin Burnett. This is only his first year with the Chargers and wasn’t a big standout with Dallas. He was a big star with Tennessee… but still, it takes some of us a while to know who we should be watching once they get to the pros! Anyhow… when I made the observation that he’s not a household name among Chargers fans yet… he came right back with an answer that will make you sit up and take notice. You have to watch the show to hear it!

It made me like him even more, though, because he practices what he preaches when it comes to being positive and visualizing your life. Good stuff.

As for his hobby – he is a total Radio Controlled car fan. You’ll see his backyard – it’s the envy of anyone who likes RC cars. Wow. I asked if I could try. And after a little pause he said yes. Apparently, he doesn’t let many people (ie. Inexperienced drivers?) take the controls. So, I’ve been hunting with Ryan Klesko, bowling with Antonio Gates, kayaking with Tim Dwight and now racing with Kevin Burnett! How’d I do? Again, you have to watch.

Kevin’s a big guy and his wife Maia is a tiny thing. They’re expecting their third baby and have their hands full with two adorable little boys.

Enjoy the show and Go Chargers!
