Recruiting Football Talk VIII

This. The key is to stay well enough hydrated that crystals don't ever form due to mild dehydration and you can drink mostly what you like. I suffered from dozens of stones over a 6 -7 year period culminating in 3 at once that were too big to pass.

Average passable stone is 2-4mm and 5 or 6mm is around the top end able to pass, depending on size and path of ureter coming from each kidney down to every guy's favorite toy. I went to pee one day and it was like I was peeing Coke because it was so black.....but no pain. It was like I poured a 2 liter of Coke in toilet but was almost all blood. Never had that happen so I freaked and went to the Tennova ER at I-75 in Powell.

Turns out that I had 11x13mm and 11x9mm monsters in the chamber and a 3rd one just about to exit my kidney into my ureter that was even larger than the other two by a good bit....all on my right side ureter/kidney.

They arranged for surgery 2 days later to do the lithotropsy and break them up. I refused a stint.....no hooked coathanger being shoved up my junk and changed weekly, if needed, while awake. Bad move.l on my part.

After surgery, the sheer amount of the broken up stone's debris caused my right side to get a massive clog of basically sand mixed with tiny razorblades. Urologist said it was like stepping on a garden hose on full blast and letting pressure build. 3-4 months of constant agony that around the clock Oxycodone couldn't touch and I finally said "Wouldn't FloMax help?"

Idiots at Urologist office said that's a great idea and I peed out about a coffee cup worth of razor sand within 2-3 days. Biggest relief ever, followed by blind fury at Urologist's office and myself on the stint, followed by oxycodone withdrawal a couple days later.

Never have passed another stone in the last 11 years, though.
It makes no sense that supposed experts in their field can't come up with basic remedies that I can find on reddit. I'd have probably punched the urologist were I in your situation, there's really no excuse for that.

But ya, water is the key. 50 or so ounces a day is usually plenty for most people.
 
Sorry, you lost me at Vodka...unless it's a Bloody Mary.
120 minute IPA


Had it one time, BEFORE they lowered the alcohol content. 24 Oz bottle was $50.

Could taste the alcohol in it. Else was a masterful, multi layered beer.

I'm concerned about the 1st Quarter Boys. Our defense will be a lot better and will probably shut down teams in the 1st quarter. That could make the 1st qtr o/u a little trickier. Hopefully our offense is good enough to take advantage of the help from our defense. I also hope we get a few o/u lines between 9.5-12.5. I think alot of our games will go over that. We should still be able to win a lot more than we lose.

@Jackcrevol
Just bet the over. Our defense is going to force 3 and outs or at worst turnovers on downs.
It will give our offense many more chances to score.

And if all else fails, just remember


16-0 🤠
 
Don't misunderstand. I am fully behind our vets and they deserve to be cared for. The point being, "It would be better that the vets not be put through these things than for them to have to be treated after the fact."

I'm not calling vets evil. I'm calling the rotten politicians and the people who buy them evil.
I didn't think you were calling them evil. You called them soldier fodder, which, to me, is insulting. I do get where you're coming from.

Does Heupel play Seldon against UTC or save him for NC ST.?

Needs live game reps. If he is healthy....I think you play DSamp every other series in first half, Seldon every other series through 3rd quarter and a mix of Bishop/Keith every other series in the second half.

@drvenner any updates on your wife you care to share? Hope she’s doing better, brother.
Thank you and everyone else. The scan was clear so we are back home. Most likely muscular inflammation. She is still in quite a bit of pain. I truly appreciate everyone's kind words and we'll wishes. Thanks to all of my VN family.

I'm all for a good beer; but, NEVER over a good whisky.

When daytime talk shows were interesting not these clown shows on these days.

It's nothing but lesbians, militant feminists and white privilege apologists or attackers on daytime TV today.....and that's just ESPN. Lol, also pretty much all the major networks. The rest are cooking shows, true crime and Finebawm. Glad I have streaming and a life.
 

tried glenlivet. isnt that scotch?

Not a fan, like taking a sip of oak.

Use to keep a bottle if Balvenie at house, mostly for guests.

Had a friend who got into Bourbon ageing his beers. Was brewmeister at Bristol Brewing before they closed. Really did some cool stuff, with high grav.

Did an oak bourbon cask aged blackberry saison, was only about 25% ABV. Stuff poured like a metamucil drink. Pooping out alcohol.
