I agree that linemen are technically obese, but they are obviously athletes. That said, it doesn't mean all those years of being that big are good for them. You can have a ton of muscle and still be unhealthily overweight.
Linemen are definitely not healthy.

Yeah there is a reason Alan Faneca (and many other examples) looks like they ingested a tapeworm after their playing days.

Yeah I think the point of the BMI index is that carrying a lot of excess weight, even if you are a powerlifter or offensive lineman, is going to put you in that higher risk bracket for all of the comorbidities. You can be very strong, but that doesn't make you healthy.

Everyone gets a trophy, amirite? Calm down fatties. This trophy isn’t for a pie eating contest.

Also BMI determines your life insurance rate as well.

Like ten years ago, I decided to increase my life insurance. I had lost 50+ pounds and thought I would get the healthy/lower rate, whatever it’s called. Unfortunately, I’m supposed to weigh 173 pounds at my height to qualify for that lower price...and that’s not going to happen. I was at 195 at the time and struggled to get that low. BMI is a damn scam. :pop:

Mine is now 25.1 (190/6'1") and I'm slightly overweight according to the BMI scale.

It’s def weird. For the most part seems like a cold but coughing fits seem to come out of no where. We thought we felt well enough to pack up the Christmas stuff. Just taking apart the tree had my heart racing and me needing to take a rest. It’s the weirdest sickness for sure.

Diving into his fifth pie, pfidc began to imagine that he wasn't eating pies. He pretended he was eating cow-plops, and rat guts in blueberry sauce...

He's saying the new policies are to not transport patients who's hearts have stopped unless you can resuscitate them in the field. Transporting patients to the ER without a heartbeat have poor outcomes, like a persistent vegetative state and such. So don't bother because we're low (or predicting to be low) on oxygen and ICU beds.

He is saying that the county is making it a policy to withhold the best possible care available, and that such an action is deplorable.

He's saying it is deplorable and that it is isn't actually happening, as some are reporting to generate clicks.

Made it back to the gym today. Looks like I put on 4 pounds in the 3 weeks they were closed. I'm 6'1" and 203 now. Gotta get back in the 190s. Way too much TV and stupid eating.

I'm not sure who that 'Charlie Camosy' clown is, but that thread is a barrage of aggressively stupid word vomit. There are hospitals in LA that are converting their f**king gift shops into non-critical patient space because they're so overwhelmed right now, and the National Guard is being mobilized to handle cadavers.

No, no. The associate professor of theological and social ethics who lives in New York knows exactly what's going on in LA. Stop with the fake news, tif.

I read an article the other day, I forget where it was from, about people taking photos of empty hallways as their evidence that ICUs were not at capacity. These people are incompetent and deserve a boot to the throat.

As of yesterday's update, in a county of over 10 million people, we have exactly 255 available ICU beds. The good news is that number has been increasing of late. But there were days last week where the county was at 0% ICU capacity.

Charlie Camosy can go f**k himself.
