Recruiting Football Talk VIII

I aint bending over. . .

Hey. A doctor with long fingers can make a prostate exam a life changing experience. That’s what a friend told me, at least.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

@Glitch is turning y'all into a bunch of Bully McBullyersons. Yetis have feelings, too!

Titans staff really liked him, but he's just not top 3 or 4

A friend made in a good point in our group chat: he thinks them cutting both is them picking Small over Haskins because they probably think they can get Small back on PS. Makes sense

 

[Rishvol]

Cowboys cut Princeton Fant. I blame @knoxvol52 .

I hear the Titans are looking for TEs

Odd, I read 'picking' as 'pickling'. Now that's a completely different thing.

There is a way for BMI to be measured, apparently very accurately, in some kinded of pod. Now that the media has thoughly disseminated the rare case of extremely mismeasurement as a general rule, it seems like 10 minutes in a pod should be part of an annual physical. Inexpensive compared to other tests and scans. Tell the people "It's science."

It’s the BodPod. The Army uses that as well.

Friendly reminder the Vols are national champions in baseball.

Damn it feels good man.

We’re 3 days away from our favorite annual tradition, Vandy fans giving up on hope after the first game.

Does Nico only play 1st half vs Mocs?

I took a ball to the nose in HS. Wasn't 90, but was a hard throw from third to first. Immediately dropped to my knees, face in hands. Blood poured from my hands when I dropped them 15 seconds later. Wasn't pretty. Nose was never the same. No fun.

Similar experience when I was 4 or 5. Walked right past the warmup circle and took a bat to the forehead. Immediate blood pouring down over my eyes was all I could see as I fell backwards on the ground, like dying in Goldeneye. Entire forehead stitched up at the ER.

Prolly also explains a lot about me...


Did you ever get a nose fix or did you just make it your thing like Owen Wilson?

 

[Gus D's kernbred]

You're saying he's got them covered?

Not for long

O'Gara: Why most college football fans should be rooting for Texas A&M to beat Notre Dame

Saturday night in College Station should have more than just the 12th Man on its side.

Innnteresting angle. Root for A&M to keep ND from the playoff because ND's schedule is so weak.

Unfortunately they're in the SEC...and still salty talking shiz about baseball, so hell no.

Hope A&M gets beat by 50.

Combine that with people being overweight and sedentary. And sitting for 10+ hours a day and that's only counting the daily commute + time in the office. Then people go home and immediately sit on the couch until they go to bed because they're too exhausted to do anything else. The modern lifestyle is quite literally toxic to our health.

Definitely a vicious cycle. Too tired because of the last 24 hours of decisions, then it keeps going. Have definitely been in that trap.

Once you get moving after work and eat cleanly during the week, you have more energy the next day...and the upcycle begins. It's a beautiful thing.

Only devils advocate statement I'm going to make is this:

If there are other passengers in a car, you've become a human-sized projectile if you are not buckled. Passengers have been severely injured and killed by other passengers who weren't buckled. So in that scenario it isn't just a personal decision.

Additionally, if there is an accident that should've been a minor incident and someone has a severe injury or death due to not being buckled - that increases the punishment for the driver at fault IF not wearing a seatbelt isn't illegal. In the least there's more court requirements to argue and prove the outcome wouldn't have been as bad had they used the safety equipment but that won't change the effect it will have on someone for their involvement in the wreck.


so I see both sides to the argumemt. At the end of the day, nobody riding in my vehicle unbuckled unless we aren't on the road. And I prefer not to ride in a vehicle with other's unbuckled because I don't want to be domed by a 200lb crash test dummy.

99% of the time I am driving...it's my life and my business.

Dietary and serum cholesterol are entirely different things.

The dirty little secret of cholesterol is that while lowering it does correlate to reductions in mortality due to heart issues, that's only true to a point, and lowering it beyond that point correlates to increased mortality due to a whole host of other issues...chief among them brain issues. Cholesterol is a material the body uses to repair and protect from certain types of damage. Cholesterol itself isn't a problem, but it is highly correlated to systemic inflammation, which is a problem. But western medicine in general, and Big Pharma in specific, do love a number they can sell you a medicine to control.

Is that why my protein powder has 28% DV of cholestrol in it?

Prolly not, but I'm curious why it does have so much. 55mg (that doesn't sound like much tbh, but apparently that 28% for an average folk). @nicksjuzunk

WW Rafting is a very dangerous thing. Even with helmets, river socks, and PFD seemed like someone drowns each year on the Nolichucky. Heck, grown ass men and women drown in Boone Lake, with no current.

Personally for me, I see a youth group not going WW Rafting. But there's also nuance to it.

Who is the company? What is the river? How many kids?

Right now, unless there's a dam release you'd probably be pushing the raft. Frankly, at these levels, you'd be better in a tube, floating the Little River.

Low water is dangerous because you can get caught easier. Normally where water would carry you over a keeper area, now you're in it.

End rant.

Our government allows over 10K food additives. Europe allows just over 300. Why is that? Much of the food sold in the US is not allowed in Europe.

"Food"

They determined Subway bread didn't even meet the standard for being considered food

Heard that. I got thrown out a raft down into the table saw on the Ocoee. Banged up my leg up pretty decent and cost me a pair of boxers.

Does Nico only play 1st half vs Mocs?

I think he'll play til somewhere in the 4th. Heupel is known to let his guys play and Nico needs the live reps. I've seen some complaining before about not pulling them out soon enough (@Glitch ). He may take him out though, risk of injury and whatnot.
