@MarissaRoberto @joeyferg He wasn't driven out, he left on his own accord while he was offered 13.5 x8 years

@joeyferg He was the wrong one to drive out.

The satisfaction of knowing I was right about Mitch all along while watching him thrive for another market is bittersweet.

The diet your great-grandparents ate: - Eggs from chickens they could see - Beef from cattle they knew the farmer of - Milk delivered in glass - Butter on everything - Bread when they had grain - Vegetables when they were in season - Lard from the pig - Drippings saved in a tin The diet you have been told is healthier: - Sweetened oat milk in a tetrapak - Industrial seed oils - Plant-based protein extruded in a factory - Imported berries flown in from Peru - Fortified cereals - Snack bars made of dates and palm oil - Vegan butter made of rapeseed and emulsifiers - Synthetic supplements to make up for what is missing Your great-grandparents lived to 85 on heart muscles that still worked. You are 34 and out of breath. The ancestral diet did not require a pharmacy.

My dad spent 40 years working for the company that made the drugs that were supposed to save his life. He was on statins before most people knew what a statin was. Blood pressure medication. Cholesterol perfectly controlled on every single lab panel for four decades. His doctors loved his numbers. He looked great on paper. Then he got a coronary calcium score. And the man who helped manufacture the drugs meant to protect his heart landed in the 90th percentile for calcification. For his age group, at 60 years old. Let that sink in. His cholesterol was controlled. His blood pressure was controlled. His labs were textbook. And his arteries told a completely different story. This is the part that is completely ignored or remains unrealized by medicine ⬇️ The cholesterol hypothesis, the idea that LDL is the primary driver of heart disease and that lowering it prevents cardiac events, was built on population-level data that never fully held up at the individual level. It became pharmaceutical gospel anyway. Here is what the research is quietly telling us now. Coronary calcium scores are one of the strongest predictors of actual cardiac events we have. Stronger than LDL. Stronger than total cholesterol. A person with high LDL and a calcium score of zero has a lower near-term risk than someone with “controlled” cholesterol and a score like my dad’s. Statins lower LDL. That part works. What they were never fully proven to do in primary prevention populations is meaningfully reduce the likelihood of dying from a heart attack. The number needed to treat is not what the commercials imply. Meanwhile the drivers that actually calcify arteries, chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, oxidative stress, seed oil-driven lipid peroxidation, mineral dysregulation, were never addressed. Not once. My dad built his career on these drugs. He trusted them completely. The labs looked perfect all the way to the scan that changed everything. Controlled is not the same as protected.

Oilers win the lottery 4 times in 6 years: "Nothing to see here" Islanders jump from 11 to 1 after their governor sends a letter out about losing the ASG: "just luck of the draw Leafs jump from 5 to 1: "Omg it's so rigged"

@icehockeystick Shut the fuck up with your race baiting bullshit

I don’t like that McKenna, who is Indigenous, now has to deal with Simmons

@MikeGrinnell_ Yes rigged for the team that haven't won in 60 years....

Rigged

@mrgrozz All 3 together

do you put McKenna on Matthews or McDavid's wing in 2028?

@40_BaySt Yup, hockey last 10 years been boring AF, zero passion and zero work ethic

@bourney2020 I just want a team that is fun to watch and fun for me is hard hitting in your face hockey so with these hires I'm screwed once again. Oh well.

John Chayka's interview would've been a great SNL skit: KP: There's a 6 year gap in your CV. What have u been doing? JC: I've been running a Wendy's. KP: The burger shop? JC: Yep. KP: Awesome, the Leafs are like a Wendy's! Why did the Yotes let you go? JC: They didn't quite let me go. I just decided to leave and looked for other opportunities while still under contract, so the league suspended me a year for breach of contract. KP: Cool initiative. What was your record like with the Yotes? JC: We went 131-147-38 over 4 years. We made the playoffs in 2020 during covid tho! KP: Amazing! Anything else we should know before checking some references? JC: I did some back room dealings that go against league rules and cost the Yotes 2 1st round draft picks. No biggie. KP: Impressive! Well, I've heard enough. When can you start?!? #leafs

@40_BaySt It's mind blowing how incompetent ownership has been for over 20 years. They really don't give a fuck about winning cuz if they did something would have been done aing time ago

@bourney2020 It's pretty amazing to witness haha

Captain material #Leafsforever

@feedthefish79 @ldl716 Let's hope not

@ldl716 Ditto. Is his sister part of the package?

I love Sundin. I don’t know that he’s ready to lead a hockey ops department in Toronto. Despite this, his hiring (if it happens) excites me. Not a fan of Chayka. At all. If this what ends up happening, he has a ton to prove. And my confidence is minimal as a fan.

@mrgrozz HeS gOnNa Be So MuCh BeTtEr

The shooter: - donated to Kamala - called Trump a r*pist pedo - wrote he wanted to target Trump officials - dozens of anti-Trump posts - house had democrat candidate campaign sign Obama: “motive unknown”

The most overrated hockey player might me Brady Tkachuk

They call him 007 0 goals 0 points 7 scrums initiated after the whistle

They wrote us off. We flipped the script.

Dubas is gonna win GM of the Year for building a team that got swept by the Flyers.
