I debated with myself on posting this, but I'm doing it anyway. This is just to serve as a warning to those who engage in this activity. My wife, who was 29, died this morning of liver failure. It was an extremely disturbing and painful death, very difficult to watch. Just remember, take things in moderation and tell those you love that you love them often, because you never know when the end is near. I'm not looking for any replies or sympathy; I just want to tell people that execessive alcohol consumption is very dangerous and you can pay for it with your life; sometimes with very short notice. Always take things in moderation and alcohol is not the answer to long term problems.

 

 

RIP Lauren,

 

Love Michael

Wow. I can't even imagine going through that. My condolences to you and your family.

 

My father is an alcoholic, and has been just about my whole life unfortunately. Luckily I have never had any serious issues with addiction. Frankly I haven't even had a drink in going on two months now. Just haven't had the urge.

 

Again, my thoughts are with you. I hope you have close friends/family that can help you get through this.

"The world is like a ride at an amusement park. It goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it’s very brightly colored and it’s very loud and it’s fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question: Is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, “Hey – don’t worry, don’t be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride…”

 

i hope you find peace in this ride we are very lucky to be on.

wow, man, i hate that for you and your family. definitely lifting you guys up.

 

thanks for taking something like this event and using it to try and help others avoid it. i hope for yours and her sake someone is impacted enough to change the way they deal with alcohol (and other not so good stuff that we tend to not do in moderation).

 

may peace of mind come your way.

that's really heartbreaking to read and I'm so sorry for you and your friends/families...I couldn't imagine.

 

I'm sure I won't be the only one to give my family an extra squeeze the next chance I can.  

 

 

sorry Michael, my condolences.

      Joe Person: Panthers really like Mason Graham and Jalon Walker

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.

      Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.

      2025 Schedule Release - post 'em when you find 'em

      Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
