​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.

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
