Thurman#1 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 (edited) Oh, man, that's a shame. There are times he would have been a terrific coach for the Bills, much better than the guys we went with. A terrible thing to hear about anybody, much less a fine coach and man like Marty.

jaybee Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Lost my Grandma to that disease. Tough to watch. You aren't kidding. Lost my Dad to it. I wont even describe what that was like. Marty, all the best to you and yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cripple Creek Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 That sucks. It does, prayers to the family. On a selfish note an alzheimers diagnosis is my biggest fear. It robs the sufferer of their self and must be a very terrible burden for family members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hondo in seattle Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Great guy, great coach, very sad news. Gives lie to the myth that if you keep your brain active, you'll keep Alzheimers at bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearNorth Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Sad to hear this, I'm an original 1960 era Bills fan, Marty played for the Bills 1965-1968. Had a reputation as a ferocious tackler, was the fourth linebacker on a great 1965 Bills team/defense that I always wished had gotten a shot at the Pack, who had trouble scoring against a mediocre Cleveland Defense in the NFL Championship. Two teams were very evenly matched, and both had great depth. Wonder if his hard hitting in any way led to this latest challenge. In that 1965 Championship Game, the Bills, east coast team traveling to the Left Coast, hung a donut on the top seeded Chargers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tcali Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 There is an ALZ epidemic happening. Why?? It has struck my family as well. Check and see if those people you know who have been diagnosed are currently and/or in the past have been taking statins. The only people who really benefit at all from statins(and its very slight) are middle aged men with prior/current heart disease. The studies show zero effect for all other groups. Don't take my word for it.Read the actual studies.If you have a decent science/math background you should be able to understand the study results/statistics. LDLs play a very vital role in the body's physiological/chemical functions. The branding of LDLs as 'BAD CHOLESTEROL' is a marketing scam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
