    same here man.  i blame it all on my mom's side of the family.  they're all in good shape, but heart attacks happen.  she's still around at 85, has 88 and 91 yr old brothers, and they've all been on statins forever.  i'm honestly just trying to avoid having a heart attack or stroke the day i retire, and my wife get all my *****.  

    Sounds like you’re on the right track. Damn genetics and getting old! lol

    i have none fortunately.  i really don't even know i'm on it other than the better lab values.  it's also the only med i'm on, so maybe that makes a difference.  i was warned that it could break down muscle and make you weaker, but so far so good.  

    I wish you well in this damn cholesterol battle. I had to go through a couple of different statins due to my body rejecting it. Finally found one that isn’t too bad. Oh well, could be a lot worse! 😆

    It’s just one of those things.  I don’t like the idea of having to take a med, but it works so well. If the meds don’t kill me a heart attack or stroke will. 

    Yep I agree. Have you had any side affects from the drug? It definitely causes severe muscle ache if I don’t combine it with CO Q10. What a pain in the neck 

    It definitely beats a heart attack or a stroke for sure.

    i'm very easy going, but i know when to discipline children.  my bp is good.  it's the cholesterol that i watch. i'm one of those guys who looks like they're in good shape, goes for a run and drops dead.  i'm trying to avoid that.

    why does it bother you so bad that i have a nice life?  i've worked hard for it.  i'm sorry that things in your world may not have gone the way you wanted, but i shouldn't have to feel bad about that.  do better.

    I’m in the same boat as you with regards to cholesterol. I even spar 10-20 hours a week but still can’t lower it without medication. Sucks.

    That was a brutally stupid decision. I'll never forget that night.

    I was in St. Louis at a Cardinals game and watching the game from a tiny TV in the concourse. After the fumble I pounded a ton of bud heavies and texted a girl that was way out of my league. I told her that I wanted to take her on a date.

    Now we're married with 5 kids and an amazing life.

    Thanks Leodis and Budweiser.

    Something great came out of that!! God works on mysterious ways!

  6. Was at the Browns game yesterday. It was a real pleasure watching Garrett vs Trent Williams. Two future first round HOF’ers. For an older LT, Williams held his own against the best pass rusher in the NFL.

    Myles Garrett. If he stays healthy, he would be the one to catch Bruce for the all-time sacks leader.

    I see a lot of Bruce in Myles.

    I know he is on the smaller side.....he's listed at 5-11 190 lbs., but he has elite speed and plays tougher than his size would indicate. He is also an elite Punt Returner.

     

    At this point, he is projected to go in the late 1st round, so he should be a realistic option for the Bills.

     

    The Bills need to put a premium on speed and Offensive weapons in the next draft, and Concepcion would be a good start.

     

    Thoughts??

    Only if he’s an injury prone and unable to get separation from a CB.

    And when I started banging the drum after we picked him ( and before) saying we don't need a luxury TE I was scorned.

     

    We didn't need a luxury TE; we don't have one now either. He doesn't play.

     

    We needed to take a chance on WR or LB. Or even CB. I liked Joey Porter and Nolan Smith. Smith at LB would have been great to have with the durability of Milano and the unknown of Bernard back in 2023. Porter would have been a fine pick for trading back. Trading up? I wasn't in love with Zay Flowers but he reminded me of Mike Evans with his prowess. Even Jordan Addison was getable.

     

    Nah we traded up for a luxury pick that rivaled willis mcgahee

    You were scorned long before that! 🤣
