Ferrari posted a video of him lifting in a public gym and repping some alkaline water....which from what I know is a BS product. I'm officially in the 'flush this turd' camp (meaning i don't think he'll ever be an AA or make his idiocy funny again).
If its his best shot at winning the match, and the match is more important than the dual, and he has a better shot at winning the match than you have at winning the dual, its an obvious yes.
