| Irv Hoops Changes Diet, Comes To Camp In Top Shape Monday, March 3rd , 1975 Players turned heads when Mavericks SP, Irv Hoops, first walked into the clubhouse on the first day of spring training. Hoops surprised everyone by shedding weight as a result of a diet change in the off-season.
"After last season ended, I decided it was time to take my career to another level. You only get one shot at playing this game at a professional level and I want to make the most of my opportunity. Apart from doing more work-outs, I decided I was going to completely change my diet. I eliminated all junk food and focused on implementing as many greens into my diet as possible."
As a result, the whole clubhouse is excited to see how Hoops performs this year. Some believe that he could really turn the corner on his career.
"I feel great. I'm excited to get out there and show the world who I am," Hoops said, grinning from ear to ear. | | |
