Hire Karl Smesko
Thank me later
Not saying he's always passive, but he definitely is too passive, imo.There were times he was upset. He just picks his spots. Apparently, he went after the officials after the LSU game and was told to move on. He also gave the officials an earful in the Iowa game after the double foul on Fulkerson and the Iowa guard.
He isn’t just always passive.
Not the same at all.Obesity, alcoholism, and drug addiction are hardly diseases. They’re the direct result of poor life choices.
Just because you choose to eat a ton of processed foods and live a sedentary lifestyle doesn’t mean you have a disease.
Just because you stick a needle in your arm, doesn’t mean you have a disease.
Your logic: we can’t call out parents who don’t pay child support. That’s dead beat shaming. They didn’t choose not to pay - they have a disease.
All the likes for proposing a potential solution to an epidemic problem.So this goes to the other extreme.
Obesity and addiction are somewhere along the same lines. Inputs (whether it's coffee, nicotine, sugar, salt, or heroine) trigger brain chemical reactions, some obviously more than others.
I think the best way to promote healthy living is livable wages/time off/work-life balance. There are a lot of jobs that are basically wage slavery-- you work all the time and overtime you can to be able to afford a life that you really can't make the time to enjoy. The average car note is $500/mo, but the average salary is $35k. People are worn out from their 40+hr weeks/1.5hr commutes, come home, and prepare the simplest meal and binge a few episodes on Netflix because that's all they can do to relax. I think if people had an extra couple hours at home, or maybe an extra day off (something like a 4-day work week or a 9/80 schedule) they'd get bored staying inside and go do something active.
Obviously, I'm definitely painting with a broad brush here, but it's a societal problem, affecting all demographics, age groups, areas of the country. Maybe at that point you have to look wider. Like, who doesn't feel overworked, or like they don't have enough time to enjoy life outside of work?
Of course, solving a work-life balance problem doesn't directly promote healthy activity. There will still be those that choose to spend their time lounging and not doing anything active even if they did gain a couple hours a day. No magic bullet.
Is ringworm shaming about to become a thing?I agree. It’s uncomfortable and now I cant gym it up for a few days. @HoleInTheRoof will yell at me
I like that better than Kroger Field.South Alabama has entered into a stadium naming deal with Budweiser Busch that includes naming right to the terrace of Hancock Whitney Stadium.The terrace will be named Michelob Ultra Terrace.
