Victor Riley RIP
« on: April 12, 2024, 10:15:21 AM »
I guess his passing didn't make too many headlines, because I just read a piece on it this morning from Jeff Shearer.  He passed the first of February.  Riley was a huge O-lineman from 94-97.  Listed at 6'5" 321, I believe he was an All American his last season.  First round draft pick of the KC Chiefs.  Played 8-9 seasons.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

I saw somewhere kidney failure.
Seems to be a lot of former professional athletes that have kidney issues. Creatine supplements maybe?

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

He was also a huge dude, and as you know from past playing days, a lot of the bigger guys we played sports with - once sports are gone - tend to go to the side of obesity and diabetes which will damage kidneys and other organs.

Hey hey. Easy now. I'm just big boned!

When training you force yourself to eat. My problem is, I love food.

Thats why I had to keep running into my 40s, even if not at the level of when I was 25.
