Deviated Septum

I have a pretty bad one. My left nostril is always stuffy because of it. The ENT prescribed Nasonex which made it so dry it would bleed. I stopped using it and went back to my old ways of claritin and sneeze attacks every morning because he said the operation is a last resort. Now I use local honey and don't have sneeze attacks any more. I'm still stuffy in the left side most of the time, but the right side makes up for it I think.

Two friends had the operation, and are both happy with the result. I'm not in a position to have it at this time.

Yeah it's really painful. It feels like they put you to sleep and repeatedly beat you in the face with a concrete block, shoved tampons up your nose and then woke you up and sent you home. Then the next day, you get to go and have them remove the tampons, and they just yank them out. Then about 2 weeks after that, you get to go get the plastic rings out. I've never been so miserable in the 6 weeks it took to recover from that.

I didn't just have a deviated septum, they also fixed several other things. I had polyps, large turbinates, and they cleaned and enlarged my sinuses so they would drain better.

Good lord. I'll just deal with mine.

      It is time to Consider the Likelihood of WR at #19

      It should be a facto, because while he needs to perform to keep his job, you still have to build with an eye to the future. Where we will be drafting, there is a more than good chance of there being a player there at a position of more need, such as OT, LB, TE, S, or CB. With all those holes, I just don’t like the idea of taking a player who will ensure one of him, T-Mac, or Coker won’t be here 4 years from now, and we all know it won’t be T-Mac who gets jettisoned. So either believe in Coker or don’t, keep him and draft another position or draft a WR and trade him, don’t straddle the middle and hamstring us by leaving more holes while leaving us a huge problem a couple years from now.

      Draft intel from ESPN’s Jordan Reid

      Oh, now we are "top half?" Keep moving the goal posts. No we aren't. We don't have a surefire WR2, nor do we have a TE that we can count on to consistently make big plays. Our receiving corps is somewhat bland to be honest. It does not have enough juice. Add another playmaker, then we'll likely be top half. Our receiving corps ranked somewhere between 20 and 25 in the league depending upon who you look at. No one has us in the top half based upon last season.

      It is hard to say--if you look back at our roster from 4 years ago...In addition, we have a ton of money going into our OL right now (which might strengthen the argument to draft a tackle now)  The average NFL career is under 4 years, but the average NFL career for first rounders is 9.3 years, so most get 2 contracts.   So having said that, I look at it as capital--if your concern (legit) becomes an issue, then you should have the same vision and trade that player and draft his replacement.  However, TMAC, Coker, and a rookie is not likely to be a problem for another 4 years--2030.   But to your point, we have a situation right now that the OL has 2 guards and a RT around or over 30.  The make about $70m per year.   I like the perspective of reality you bring, however.  Is that a factor to morgan in 2026?
