All depends how well you take care of yourself. Once you hit 50, if you aren't on top of health related things, it can spiral pretty quickly.

Probably true in most cases, but not in my family. We’re drinkers, smokers, reckless & carefree and damn near centurion's. 
Quality German stock.

HEIL!

Tough. Battled addiction in multiple forms. Found unresponsive in December 2023, later blamed on a respiratory illness. Hopefully he has found peace in his passing. 

Agreed.  I truly hope he’s found peace as addictions can wear a person out in unimaginable ways.  The problem with that wealth is you have no one to tell you you’re going off a cliff.  I’m sure he has a succession plan, and he was a good owner.  He always cared about his players.

Perfect blend of football and opioids. Broke the mold . . .

Your mental approach and belief is more impactful than "reality".  Being proven by advanced neuroscience.

The guy definitely had a big personality.  And seemed to be quite the character.  (Can’t say the same for Pegula who I could not imagine being any blander)

 

The Colts have always been a pretty solid franchise.  Except for their GM Ballard who pretty much sucks.  
 

As for 65 being too young to go.  You live fast and hard your whole life, you are very lucky to get near 65.  Opioid addiction will mess you up.
