Okay that's weired...
From a magazine about titanium:

More and more pro athletes are wearing titanium jewelry, does it really help performance?

Hmm...some claim that it effects muscle strength, caunteract fatigue and even reduce pain.

what ya think?? for some reason I really doubt it, but hey who knows...
I may start hanging my titanium mug around my neck...

I'm Mr. T, and no one is allowed to wear their mug around their neck. No one is allowed to wear anything bigger than what I have around my neck.

Hey, you look mighty fine in them tight jeans...


LOL.

It has to be an ostentatious display of wealth for pro athletes to wear it around their neck. That's what I love about free agency - paying my hard-earned dollars to buy gold chains for jocks to wear while they feebly swing at bad pitches and strike out with runners in scoring position.

Or why I prefer the minor leagues.

I heard carrying a 50 lb. lead weight in your shirt pocket really helps with hair loss, sweaty palms, incontinence, and dry mouth.

Probably just gives you a back ache and a hole in your shirt. Just a wild guess.

Probably about the size of a brick.

If it won't fit, grind it up and snort it.
