They also have a new donation level that’s even less expensive:

That's just barely more than a gallon of gas.

She is out of surgery. It went really well. She is on pain medication now, but she’s awake, breathing, and moving well. Thank you all for praying and thinking of us. Love you guys.View attachment 455990

So very happy to see this picture and to read this news!! Love and prayers continue from all of VN!!

You aren't fooling us...we know how many 11+ game parlays that you won.

I wish, I'm so broke, it's not funny. Medical bills have literally taken everything. About to find out more tomorrow. Ive not had a break in so long, I'm expecting the worst.

I am sorry to hear that. Medical bills are one of the top expenses that do hit people hard.

To me the biggest stat you gotta have as a QB at UT to cement yourself here as top 10 or better is Wins & Losses.

Peyton Manning: 39-6
Casey Clausen: 34-10
Andy Kelly: 24-5-2
Tee Martin: 22-3
Josh Dobbs: 23-12
Heath Shuler: 19-5
Hendon Hooker: 6-5

I don't know how many he'll win this season, but if he wants to really be talked about as a UT great he needs to finish his career with 15 or more wins I think.

Maybe he should get an adjustment, since he's a transfer? Mayne not. . . 15 wins in almost 2 years is reasonable.

Even if you're broke like me, they have a level that still allows you to help.

$5/mo is something most fans can do and I'm a sure every bit helps.

every bit does help, but you're not broke Parlay Peyton

 

[drvenner]

Yeah, this NIL is killing Bama, Georgia and Clemson

You'd be surprised how broke I am.

A player's legend is obviously related to their highs and significant achievements.

For instance, Cam only suited up for Auburn for one year, but most Auburn fans would put him in their top 5 Auburn players ever.

We jump UGA when Tate and Francis commit. Plus, they just had a 2023 top 25 commit re-classify to 2022.

Aw man, I hate to hear this. My own are starting to mount a good bit. Hitting our deductible early this year. Truly hope things get better for you soon.

I mean if you make a bowl you're playing in 13 games. So 26 in two years, granted he didn't start in 2 games this year (had he we probably win both of those games).

So yeah, 15 wins is over 50% for two years and a pretty good starting point. So if he stays healthy he'll leave here with 24 starts in his career, I think 15-9 or 16-8 will be pretty impressive considering where we were when he came here.

I mean, you bought it at, I am guessing, to close to what it is selling for in the golf shops. That seems like a lot of money for a putter, to me. I don't golf, though, so maybe it's a bargain.

I actually bought it for $370

Still a lot for a putter. But if you know you know.

have you looked into medishare?

 

[gainesvol82]

Honestly, if someone on this forum isn’t a contributor at this point then they’re either a troll pretending to be a Vols fan, or they poors.

Because if you live and breath this team like we all claim to, and aren’t compelled to donate $25 a month especially after the early returns we’ve seen, then something doesn’t add up.

I've been hearing your Tuesday questions on Locked On Vols quite a bit recently.

 

[volfaninpa]

Paging @Bassmaster_Vol just wanting to check on you.

There are services that you can use to get those bills cut down. I know that you know how to Google, I just have anecdotal experience with family of coming to some sort of arrangement or negotiation to not have to pay nearly the full amount. Maybe you've already done that. Medical bills can pile up so damn fast.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I've looked everywhere. It's not sickness anymore, I'm pretty much healthy. It's just financial crap.

Legitimate question that probably exposes my privilege, but doesn't insurance have an annual maximum? Or are there insurances that don't?

I can't speak to someone else's experience but sometimes you find out the hard way that practices aren't in network, procedures are covered differently, or the billing dept for these practices/orgs just flat out botch their jobs and bury you.

I'm not sure. I had insurance for my guys, but not very much for me. Took care of basic stuff, but it had a $5k limit.

I was billed by 6 different physician groups and the hospital separately on top of that. Crazy.

I wonder where we would be if the guy who successfully cultured HeLa would've patented it instead of giving it away freely

Yea you gotta keep a close eye on the hospitals billing. I was in the ER and was transported to the hospital overnight. Received one CT scan and spent 36 hours in the hospital. The hospital “forgot” to notify my insurance for them to “pre-approve” my overnight stay and then the insurance denied the claim and they billed me for $14,000. Thankfully I fought them and the insurance worked it out with the hospital and I never heard anymore about it, but it sucks fighting them over that and not everyone wins those battles.

Also, ive always heard but havent ever tried, but apparently if you ask for an itemized bill of everything your bill will be much lower. Theyll take off some of the extra stuff they put on there and wont charge $75 for a band aid.
