John Paul Foschi Signs 2-Year Contract with the Chiefs


Following a year break from football, former Oakland Raiders Full Back John Paul Foschi decided to get back into shape. For those that don't know J.P., when he makes a decision, it becomes a full fledged commitment, accepting no compromises.

After spending his off-season training at Institute 3E, J.P. is back and in the best shape of his life. One workout was all Kansas City Chiefs head coach Herm Edwards needed to see. On April 16th, the Chiefs agreed to a 2-year contract with Foschi, who will return to his collegiate position at Tight End.

We congratulate John Paul Foschi on his achievement, and we look forward to seeing him in action this Fall.

Sports Illustrated Features Komisarek's Brute, Brawn and Brilliance!

Michael Farber writes about our very own Mike Komisarek making his impact known (and felt) in hockey's toughest league...

"[Mike] is 6' 4", 240 pounds before breakfast, which makes him the NHL's biggest intangible.

The numbers are noteworthy -- he wears his statistics in the pastel yellow under his eyes and the purple welts on his torso -- but Komisarek has given Montreal something better measured by orthopedists than stat crunchers: a spine."

Chris Higgins was also interviewed about his teammate and workout buddy...

"The thing that upsets him most is hockey laziness," says Higgins, who shares Komisarek's yoga and workout regimen during summers on Long Island. "He came from a family that worked its ass off to get where they did, and he doesn't want anyone here to take it for granted."

Sports Illustrated names Mike Komisarek on their All-Star Roster

Mike Komisarek's off-season conditioning at Institute 3E was highlighted by his leadership, commitment, dedication and passion for his sport. It comes as no suprise to us that Sports Illustrated picked Mike for their starting six in the Eastern Conference. Here's what SI had to say about the Defenseman:

The combative blueliner had a league-high 150 blocked shots and was second in hits (160). He's the perfect complement to slick partner Andrei Markov.
