Oh yeah, immediate danger, fully agree.
As far as their chemical dependency, (not "habit") nicotine is ranked 3rd or 4th by basically every addiction center.


Wasn't suggesting they robbed for cigarettes😅, too easy and cheap for that. But they will absolutely take extra time, plus reaching, making themselves more vulnerable position wise.

Knowing how extreme the mental and physical withdrawals are with opiates, even barbiturates, and alcohol, I'm just having a hard time believing nicotine should be anywhere on the list. Not arguing the point, it just seems questionable to me.
 
Well Butchna, I’m not accusing our staff of doing a poor job of adding transfers. I was making a general statement. Have to carefully evaluate transfers. Our staff did a good job except with Juwan Mitchell who won’t be here next year most likely and wasn’t a good player when he did play. I like all the other transfers

Where did I miss that Mitchell wasn't coming back? So if so, he got us to pay/fix his shoulder and then is now taking off?

As the Doc said, they all have their own high(or low)lights.

Tobacco kills approximately 500,00 Americans a year. Little Jefferson City recently had 5 opioid overdose deaths in a 5 week period. Right now, overdose is the big attention-getter, and is a major pandemic in it's own right, but tobacco deaths continue year after year, pretty much under the radar.
Nobody dies within a year from smoking a cigarette. I understand addiction.
How many people does sugar kill a year?
Overdoses get the headline because they should. They are sudden and a lot could have been avoided if pharmaceutical companies didn't lie about ocycodone not being addictive.
How many overdoses have there been from kratom?
Cigarettes cutting the last 10 or 15 years off of your life is a whole world of difference than opiates cutting 4 decades off.

I would fact check that list. But I totally agree. Addiction sucks.
 
That’s when I will be done with CFB.

I do not have a good feeling about our recruiting finish right now. Very offensive top heavy. You can't not recruit defense in the sec. The cop out seems to be " ah we were always going to suck this year" but that's not true. We're striking out across the board on defense and it's an alarming trend. There's something very negative swirling around the perception of our defense amongst recruits and transfers right now even though we have one of the best d line coaches in football. Something is going on.

Is it cosmetic? I mean, did it tear off shingles and soffit or did it damage underneath? I may be able to send a couple guys and tools to help, if needed. Just need to know if it's something we could actually help with.

Tamaeto/tamahto. I don't disagree at all.

However, as I get older, those last 10 or 15 years are mattering a whole lot more.
