That noted cesspool full of runoff from the sports media factory, but this is different! Artisanal, even, if we feel like extending the metaphor. It's about Shannon Turley's strength program, and some of the detail is really interesting (though I hope they got it cleared, as HIPAA may be a factor here):

That was a very interesting article, and makes me glad that Turley's position was endowed. Really seems like the kind of guy we want around basically forever.

Sorry, I refuse to click on Bleacher Report, on general principles. Life is too short.

The injury prevention part was very interesting.
I remember reading an article about the 49ers a while back that talked about how many of the players were noticing how much time Harbaugh had them spend stretching than was the norm, but the coaches believed it lowered the number of injuries.
There is a longer podcast with the Stanford S&C team somewhere on the Scout site.
