    Sad. I always enjoyed listening to Marty talk to the media and speeches to his teams. He was a master motivator.

    If you are fairly healthy regardless of age

    Go very low carb (<50g or lower) per day... Get your body running on ketones

    Thank Sammy later

    An uncle of mine passed at 91 after suffering from this disease for several years. I know first hand how difficult it can be for the family members who are caretakers. As a general rule once you enter hospice your days on earth are limited. For my father who suffered from diabetes it was about a week. Hospice assisted via medication to speed up his passing.
    Marty may pass on Sunday.

    Guy should be in the Hall of Fame easily. 200-plus wins, 615 winning percentage, and he revived 3 teams from last place, 4 if you count his one year with Washington.

    Who were Marty's quarterbacks? Kosar, Gannon, Montana on his last legs, a young Rivers, Elvis Grbac? Not the worst list, but Montana was just about done and Rivers was too young to win in the playoffs that one years.

    No way could I work in hospice. The work they do in end of life is amazing.

    Damn that sucks. I remember seeing Marty driving around SD in his modest cop cruiser. Can't remember his vanity plate - maybe peavy remembers.

    For those who aren't aware, a hospice diagnosis is for those deemed to live 6 months or less. Some live longer, but a sad situation no doubt.

    It’s terrible to get old


    Starting at about age 50 every five years You start to gradually go down-in all the different categories

    Take collagen peptides powder mixed in tart cherry juice. Will keep you young. People don't believe I'm 55.

    it was much different. i remember being a kid and always feeling the teams who were good were light years ahead of the bad teams.
