Hey that was a staple in my golf bag back in the day, and my beer of choice was high life.................but that was 20+ years ago when I was single and drank quite a bit.

Make the mistake of reading several topics in the FF about the scrimmage and the QB situation. Like being in the 3rd circle of h3ll. In summary, here's what was said:

Report: Tennessee Set to Host Penn State's Top 2027 Offensive Commit This Season | Rocky Top Insider

Tennessee is set to host Penn State commit and 2027 No. 1 running back Kemon Spell for a visit this fall, according to GoVols247.

www.rockytopinsider.com

According to a report from GoVols247’s Ryan Callahan this week, Tennessee is set to host 2027 running back Kemon Spell for the Oklahoma game in Neyland Stadium this fall.

The obstacle that Tennessee will have to overcome is flipping him from a prominent Big Ten program, though. Spell has been committed to Penn State since August 2024 and is currently ranked as the Nittany Lions’ top overall commit in the 2027 class.

'Part of history.’ Cherokee dispensary starts first recreational cannabis sales in Southeast

The Eastern Band of Cherokee dispensary became the first in the Southeast to have legal recreational marijuana sales. More than 4,000 customers showed up at the Great Smoky Cannabis Company on the first day of recreational weed being sold in North Carolina.

Don't quit. Have you tried counseling? Think of the kids.

Are you saying that there is a link between statins and dementia? I had not heard of that. I would be interested in any information you have on that. I will look into it myself in the meantime. Thanks @JacketVol

I have just seen some recent information on it but not a particular place I could specifically point you to. Good luck looking for it. Basically since statins were introduced in the 80's, dementia has risen dramatically.

Let’s become friends. What’s your address?

 

[OptimusPrimerib]

well yeah if you are taking it and lifting you will replace fat with muscle but muscle weighs more. I was just letting people know that the scale will tell you that you are gaining weight even if your body is looking better.

Sorta. Muscle is denser than fat so a pound of muscle will take up less space than a pound of fat.

Our brain needs cholesterol to function properly. Our hormone glands need cholesterol to function properly.

Is it any wonder that when they started pushing seed oils and lowering cholesterol that Alzheimer’s increased significantly since? How about all the 30+ year old men having to start testosterone bc our lvls are bottomed out? My testosterone was barely over 100 in my 30’s.

I’m not saying statins should not be taken at all. I’m saying to be very careful in doing so.

This isn’t true. Throwing a “99%” blanket statement is wrong. There are 3 basic body types. Endo, Meso, Ecto.

Not everyone is created equally

Those terms were created in a research paper about the personality types of swimmers. They have nothing to do with how people should eat and train. People like V-Shred have used that to shill their products.

Why is this so funny in retrospect?

 

[JacketVol]

It's the opposite. Inconclusive studies about statins and dementia

Do statins increase the risk of dementia? - Harvard Health

A study published June 29, 2021, by the Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC) found no link between statin use and a higher incidence of dementia in adults ages 65 and older, but oth...

www.health.harvard.edu

I am not getting into a debate. Doctors and Harvard will tell you one thing. But dementia and Alzheimer’s have skyrocketed since 80’s when statins were introduced. I purposely did not include the research I have seen so others could do the research. Do your own research not mine or Scooter to determine what’s best for you. I will say I do not trust Harvard docs or the doctor that pushes pills for everything all the time. My gastrointestinal specialist totally understood and gave me the name of an internist who does general family practice.

 

[Heupel's Offseason Beard]

Every national champion since 2011 has had a blue-chip ratio of at least 50%.

Tennessee’s 2025 roster has a blue-chip ratio of 54%, marking the first time it’s made the list since the stat was first tracked.

For comparison it was 46% last season where we won 10 games and went to the playoffs. But yeah, we're going to finish 9th in the SEC or whatever.

Brutha ive drank enough beer, legit, for a lifetime. from keg parties in HS to more keg parties, and pre parties to after parties.

I'm done.

 

[Devo182]

That’s the disappointing thing about all of this. Could have been another playoff run with those pieces. I still wonder if it would have been worth the extra $$ to keep Nico for one more season. Big Nick may have been a headache but now we’ve traded that for our own QB headache.

While I sort of agree, don't think you can set the precedent of caving at every whim.

Moreso disappointed we couldn't bring in a wider net of fish into the transfer net. We literally took UCLA's leftovers. Here's to hoping that was a genius move.

 

[Devo182]

Hey, I’ve got a great idea. Let’s give those kids millions of dollars over the course of 3-4 years and see how things turn out?

Those "Kids" are legal adults and are valued accordingly.

I do agree they need plenty of mentorship.

Yes, it was a bad situation. Maybe we could have caved it no one else would have found out but it was too public and sets the wrong dynamic with the players.
