Counterpoint - DC is happy. I'm suspicious.

Granted it was over 10 years ago, but this isn't all that bad...

He was the quarterback coach and co-offensive coordinator for Robert Griffin III, including during his Heisman Trophy season in 2011. He went on to become the lone offensive coordinator from 2012-2014 at Baylor, with Baylor finishing No. 1 nationally in total offense during his final two seasons there. They ranked No. 2 in total offense in 2012.

This espn article makes it sound like it's a done deal

I'd be willing to bet that as long as Whit is still employed by VT, Pry has at least two more years...he's a great talker, and I'm sure he'll convince Whit (and probably he's not wrong) that with two new coordinators, expectations should be held in check next year

As others have mentioned, a lot of it is genetic. I'm 42, about 6' and 170lbs. Finally starting seeing a regular doctor last year, grandather died before I was born from heart disease - my dad, who at 80 is more fit than most 50 year olds I know, has had a history with heart issues...so I figured it was time.

I don't remember the exact numbers but when I first went in for labs my cholesterol was high and triglycerides were worrisome high. Committed to more exercise, better diet and went on a 5mg statin. Went back 6 month later, and the numbers were down, but not where we wanted them. Bumped the statin to 10mg, and the latest checkup the numbers were still trending the right direction. I have notice no side effects from the statin.

The last thing on my check-off list, as it sounds like it might be the same with many others commenting here is reducing the ol' alcohol intake. I've got labs on Friday, I don't think I've cut back enough to show a difference on this one, but we will see.

I've also been taking red yeast rice supplements, and I just ordered a citrus bergamot extract supplement. My dad has been taking this and said it had a bigger impact on the cholesterol numbers than his rX did

EDIT: Got my labs back, overall cholesterol came in at 185, triglycerides at 111, HDL at 62, LDL at 103 borderline high)...overall, I'd say the combo of meds, diet and exercise is working right....still gotta work on cutting back on boozw

I've faded away from my steady cardio work, always happens...30 and up basketball league tipped off 3 weeks ago. Two games per week, usually running a solid 30-36 minutes per game. I'm beat by the end.

Two games ago, Wednesday of last week, had a mid-court collision and took a shoulder to the ribs on my right side. Still super painful when I cough, sneeze, laugh or do much of anything. Played through it last night, but my insides were screaming at me the whole time.

We have a bye tomorrow, and I'm out of town next Monday, so I've got until the 19th to rest up before I gotta play again. If it's still hurting by then, might have to get em checked out

GO BIRDS!

Amen to that. Until we do, we'll continue to be mid

In another shot of deja vu

Drones for Heisman?

Given the amount of attention and time we're spending discussing Neal Brown, I think it is safe to say it is not going to be Neal Brown

Let's get to work!
