I’m a life insurance underwriter. In 25 years I’ve had 6 former NFL players die on me. 3x from accidental prescription pain killers overdoses (you build tolerance and they need to increase the dosage to alleviate the chronic pain. Overdosing then happens easy.) and 3x deaths due to obesity related morbidities. (HTN, lipids, CAD, Diabetes)

Whether you rooted for him or against him, he always put on a good show. RIP.

CAD is “Coronary Artery Disease”, NOT “Computer Aided Design” for those of us who don’t know the jargon.

I hear what you’re saying. Here in Minnesota, our Lt Governor candidate is Matt Birk.

He played 13 years in the NFL as an offensive lineman. He was massively big, went to Harvard, won a Super Bowl, has eight kids, still married and is strongly pro-life.

But when you see pictures of him now, he’s still big but he looks like he’s dropped a lot of weight. Being used to seeing him when he played, he looks almost sick now.

The Demos in this state think he’s just another meathead jock trying to win office on his name - but they’re gonna be surprised when he speaks. He’s clear, accurate and firm in his beliefs and better yet, he can hold his own in a debate.

His last name sounds Samoan or Hawaiian. They tend to be big heavy people, moreso as they get older.

Did you see how huge that guy was? Not happy that he died…but you cannot do that to your body for 40 years.

I saw Matt Light recently who had been a left tackle for the Patriots, and I was astonished.

He played at probably 310, but didn’t even look like the same person. If I had to guess, he looked like maybe 240 or less.

He must have been one of those guys who worked to keep the weight on.

Due to the evil, deception, and secrecy of the US government today, there is a natural tendancy to believe the worst. If they hadn’t rushed the Covid gene therapy through and forced many millions to take it or be fired, stay locked down, lose benefits & etc., then we would probably not be at a point where we just automatically assumed the clot shot is killing everybody under 70.

At 55 years old and 340 LBs and possibly having used steroids when younger, it would not be a stretch if he died from completely natural causes. It is a real shame that our sinister and secretive government has caused me to believe, in almost knee-jerk fashion, that anybody under 60 keeling over “suddenly” and “unexpectedly” must have died from the shot.

In reality, people have met untimely natural deaths for thousands of years or more, and it is not as if 55 is young.

Im 6'4 and weighed almost 400lbs. I'm down to 230lbs now. People assume 350lbs is a lot, it's not - especially if you are just a big person. im talking bone structure, sheer mass. Even at my heaviest I still wore a 48-inch waist. That is not small, but that is not MASSIVE either (You can still shop at Walmart hehe). My shirts were a 3XLT. After losing my weight - My waist is still 38/40, and my shirts are still a 2XLT (XXXLT). Numbers mean nothing, it's about your body fat and bone density. I am in my 40s so I consider myself lucky. Most things catch up to men in their 50s - and quickly. If a man makes it out of his 50s healthy - he will usually live a good life.

My father-in-law used to say that. Unfortunately he didn't, but I'm trying.

Reminds me of the “Hefty Lefty” Jared Lorenzen a QB from Kentucky who was drafted by the Giants. He was big when he played, got way bigger after he played, didn’t make it to 40.

Don’t blame it all on the government. There are many out there stoking the anti-vaxxine fires, spreading disinformation in an attempt to make you to believe the worst about the shot. All because they’re trying to sell your snake oil remedies.

You are the biggest spreader of disinformation we have here on FR. You must be the leader of the Branch Covidians.
