​I hope I die before I get old

It's hard to sound morbid, but I do as well. But I'd rather say I want to go before serious health complications affect my quality of life. I don't want to live 50-65/70 with an awful illness. That's in part why I take such good care of myself, but that does guarantee anything. No need to worry about such things though lol. You're 27, happy birthday!, and I'm 29. We've got at least 20 years or good life left given we're smart about our choices. 'Getting old' is a state of mind.

I hear ya man.  It's not that I don't enjoy life and want it to end - far from it.  But I have seen what "Assisted Living" homes look like.  What people look like at the end of their lives...shitting themselves, unable to feed themselves, don't even know where they are anymore, family doesn't care or come see you.  It's awful.  It's dehumanizing.  And it's a huge corporate scam now - squeezing out what little money pharmaceutical and insurance companies can get out of old people at the end of their lives.

Spoiler alert: 30s are so much better than 20s. Not even close.

​40s aren't as bad as people think, either. i mean you ache a little more, but you've also learned how to enjoy more of just life happening. it's just a shame that it speeds up so much.

life ain't over when you get older. life is over when you quit living. that happens when you make the mistake of saying "this is as good as it's ever going to get." that's a lie. you make it what it is.

I've got long underwear older than all of you.    Actually they are tights that my ex wife left behind - bless her heart.  I put them on to show off my hot old man physique - they do a great  job of covering the stretch marks. scars.  incipient cellulite. and show off my package to great advantage.

    • And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth  
    • I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years. 
    • We need to hope this scenario plays our next week he fails with pressure…what that means with Evero, is beyond me
