He's the best lineman we had this year

Well, that ain't saying much. But I agree, and I hope he stays.

I guess they wink-wink know they are in the playoff and doesn't matter how bad they get hammered. Win probability low either way, but just down 14 with the way anything can happen, I see that as reckless.

Delusion...unless someone is from there. It is no better of a job than LSU and arguably not as good of a job. They are applying the Saban situation to Kiffin. My belief is that Saban would not have left LSU for another college job, and if the timing had not been as it was, would have readily returned instead of going to Tuscaloosa. Again, my opinion but that is based on things I've heard the man say, not any kind of insider info, just what he has said publilcly.

I'm not gonna leave a sham review, but I would guess that the number of folks that have had a bad experience at any Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep/Ram dealership is quite high :rotflmao:

It is a damn shame that as it appears, the staff is going to be left in a shambles heading into the playoff run. My oldest daughter (no pics) is an Ole Miss grad (started at LSU and transferred for a good reaason), but me, my wife and three other kids are either LSU alums now or will be by next May. It runs deep in our blood and I never root for other SEC schools unless it directly helps LSU.

That being said, I take no joy in how this is playing out. And I don't blame our new coach - I'm ecstatic and have the highest of expectations for him and don't know that I would've wanted anyone else that is remotely available.

I will still enjoy rooting against all the SEC teams that will be in the playoff and will take great joy in any loss, though now, I just feel pity and sympathy for Ole Miss, though I will say pretty much only the players and one OM alum/fan in particular - not most of the fan base or university in general. But I do feel the fault lies in structure of the calendar for playoffs, signing day and xfer portal. No LK's fault, thought he will be made a villian, as will LSU.

I'm ready for him to be in front of a podium and be able to stick a fork in this deal.

I'm a surgeon, not an orthopedist. 57 y/o active and fit. Tore my medial meniscus (L. knee, medial meniscus, posterior horn) last August. I knew what I had done when I did it. Being active is important to me and I need to be able to get around for my job. I gave it about 6 weeks to see if it got better, pain got worse and had surgery not quite 3 mos. after initial injury. Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy. Very little time off of work, partial weight bearing very early. Pain for a while, gradually went away and now I can't even tell that I had a problem there. I play tennis, work in the yard, lift, take active vacations with plenty of getting around on foot and generally do whatever I want to.

If its a surgical problem, don't be afraid to apply a surgical fix. Find a good surgeon and get more than one opinion if you want to, but no need to wait forever for something to get better on its on that is not gonna get better. If you have a flap of tissue floating in that space, it is likely going to continue to be a nidus of inflammation and continue to hurt. Meniscectomy is far easier and quicker to recover from in general. Good luck.

I don't think so because I fear there is always going to be the issue of access for many, fear for others and simply inertia for still others.

It's frustrating that more people don't have access to these drugs, and we can talk all we want to about energy balance and caloric restriction (which unshakable physical truths) until we are blue in the face, but there are some people who just can't get it done without something that helps them achieve a caloric defiict. I don't know why it is and it is very well borne out in that the typical person underestimates caloric intake by as much as 20% whereas the typical individual who is overweight underestimates daily caloric intake by about 40%. This makes long-term success very difficult. This is where cognitive behavioral therapy (even self-directed) can have a great degree of benefit.

Also I think many individuals underestimate the value of building and mainting lean body mass in favor of simple calorie burning exercise to help with weight management. This is a huge mistake and building/maintianing lean muscle mass is absolutely critical along with caloric restriction to maintining a healthy weight/body composition. But this isn't easy, and often is not enjoyable, hence the problem we see in society at large.

The thing about weight gain is that yes if an individual stops the drug and resumes eating in a caloric excess, they will inded gain the weight back. What I do is stress that these drugs are not magic at all, they just help an individual reach a state of a caloric defiict, and the only thing they will change is how much food an individual takes in. My hope is that understanding and believing this will be the difference in the future between completely regaining what can be lost and at least having some modicum of success maintaing a more healthy and/or desirable weight.

Not sure if this is a running joke, but I just copied and pasted this little blurb from the company website:

I getcha,Yeah, its a good shop (which I have no problem paying for quality work) and we know several of the guys including the owner (patients of either my wife or mine or their family members are). And I'll be there when they come and we'll talk about it and he'll let me look over his shoulder and ask questions so I can learn just enough to be dangerous lol.

He did the lighting upgrade in the media room (which runs off of that box) for me a couple of years ago and put in a dedicated circuit for my Kranzle pressure washer for my psycho car washing habits.
