John Lynch says Brandin Cooks had been reaching out to the 49ers for years prior to being signed: “He stayed in touch over the years and let us know that he grew up in Stockton and that he was a huge Niner fan and if ever the opportunity presented itself. We were incredibly deep at receiver coming into this year and that’s been tested early and so you start looking at options and Brandin’s name pops up and so let’s get him on the phone. Something Kyle likes doing is FaceTiming and seeing people so we did that. We knew he had some other opportunities and we just like telling people the truth and he knew of our infinity for him over the years and it was mutual.” via: @knbrmurph | @MarkusBoucher

Do you work out more for the physique or the mental benefits?

The key to overcoming procrastination is to do something *more* unpleasant than the thing you are procrastinating about. What you choose is subjective but the reason it rebounds you to a heightened state of motivation is due to dopamine-dynamics (biology). Which is why it works.
