There's a police report floating around that says Ulis and Booker had something to do with it. That's all I can say right now.
From the report:



Looks bad, imo

So, I'm visiting in the folks and decided to go through some of my old ball cards. Found 2 Derek Jeter rookies just like one that went for 33K in an auction in 2013. Gem mint condition of course. Need to have mine graded. Thinking they could go for around 50K 4-5 years from now during his HOF ceremony.

Already put them in a safety deposit box.

Any of the super athletes or doctors of GYERO ever had or have an opinion on gel joint injections. I severely touched up knee this year. Original injury wasn't bad but I sprained it twice within weeks after post-op which created further issues and I already have a degenerative condition, so now my ortho wants to do Orthovisc injections. If anyone has had them, did you actually experience relief?

They seem to have greater efficacy than placebo. Doesn't hurt to try them out, so long as your going to a reputable place. I'd suggest you have them done image guided (using a fluoroscopy machine), so you know they actually went in the right spot. A lot of docs just do them blind (by touch)...most of the time they get it right, but not always.

Basically the gist of these injections, or just injecting steroids, is to buy you time and relief. Unfortunately, arthritis never really gets better. The goal is to provide relief and delay the inevitable, which is a joint replacement. You can only patch a tire for so long, eventually it just wears out.

Thank, Dr. Boat. I have level 3 arthritic degeneration so I know I'm just delaying the inevitable, but I'd like to delay as long as possible.

Try it out, hope it helps. I'll usually do up to 4 steroid injections a year, orthopedic guys tend to be more aggressive and will use higher doses. Sometimes the first does the trick for a few months, sometimes it takes a few to notice improvement. Make sure that its just arthritis and not something like a torn meniscus which won't be seen on xray. If you haven't had an MRI, might want to push for that first.

Joint replacements last like 10-15 years usually. It's not as easy as just changing a tire, revisions get more complicated and involved. Putting it off as long as you can is ideal.

My original surgery was for a torn meniscus and then after spraining it twice, we just did a MRI with contrast which didn't show any new damage to the meniscus but can see the arthritis picking back up just a few months from the last clean up.

Hit me up...I'd be happy to help you with the grading process. If they are in giant plastic cases get them out. Ive been dealing cards as a hobby for quite a while now.

The thought of someone literally ripping my knee/hip out and shoving a new metal one in its place makes my skin crawl.

I'll go to a hoverround before I let that happen.

It doesn't have to be that bad. Pick your surgeon and almost as important, your anesthesiologist, correctly, and you'll do fine with a knee replacement.

Lol. Yeah. You don't get much of a choice, but you can go to a hospital that employs an anesthesia group (baptist, for example) who do things that better serve their patients than other hospitals. I won't say much more because you never know who's reading, but if you want to discuss Lexington, I can offer input.

Yes I'd like a double shot of versed, hit me up with some fentanyl while your at it. Maybe a few oxycodone for the road. Can I play with the gas machine, what's this knob do?

It's been my job for 8+ years now. Anesthesia and orthopedics make up 60-65% of my business.

Been 16 years boys. Man. At least he finally admitted that Detox is scrapped, this is going to be it. :pray:

I felt myself being so inspired by the movie that I started to record an album,” Dr Dre said during his show, The Pharmacy. “It’s going to be my grand finale. The record is bananas.”

This is his first album since 1999’s 2001. For the past decade, rumours have been surrounding his follow-up, Detox, which had apparently been finished and scheduled for release multiple times. Dre explained during his show on Saturday that he has now scrapped the album. “I didn’t like it. It wasn’t good,” he said. “I worked my *** off on it, and I don’t think I did a good enough job.”

For Dr Dre’s full show, listen back to

Late Eli Randoms:

76/73

[sick]

First off, the course was amazing. Brought back memories of the good ole days...was like carpet out there, greens were as true as you'll find.

-Thursday night: Went to Ben's for Wii GAMBOL at 8:30...went to bed at 6am (daylight), and ended up missing my 11am tee time by about 1:30 and had to join my group on #7. Hospital worthy hangover, wanted to kill myself.

...walked in Meemommie's in a panic to change around noon to find KC's nurse, Meemommie, and Drew Franklin's mom in the kitchen. She'd come to deliver me a chocolate pie for good luck. Toughed it out for a few minutes before having to leave to go throw up, which I'm sure they heard every minute of. Embarrassing.

Tried my best to sober up for the shootout, ended up making the final 5 (out of 26) before being put out on 6.

-Saturday: Was still a hungover mess, somehow kept it together...bogeyed 16 & 17 on the way in for a 76.

-Sunday: Was hungover yet again after trying to drink my way back to normal Saturday night. Turned in -2 (33) after basically whiffing my opening tee shot. Again, bogeyed 16 & 17 on the way in for a 73.

Then of course, there was my shot on #9 to 4" that won me a $1000. [smoke] Ball was about one more rotation from going in...Nice little addition to the tournament having $500 on Saturday and $1000 on Sunday on #9.


What a weird weekend. So many good things happened despite me feeling like near death from basically the outset. #Golf

...ended up having to stick around Sunday night to collect on that, got to watch the leaders. Great time, nothing like the Sunday Eli Galleries, it really is so cool.

Some Kevin Waldie dude (pro gambler) flat ran away with it, -5, which ties the best Eli score ever by JB Holmes, iirc. He was just in a zone, and flawless. 2nd place was +1, and then a bunch of +3-+7 made up the rest of the top 10. Course held up as always in probably the best/deepest field yet except for Waldie. A few Web.com tour guys got smoked, and Andy Roberts WD after round one. Love seeing these out of town guys, college golfers, & young guns come in and get smacked around by MCC, never fails.

Best showing in 18 years for me, and the course/environment is really back to the good ole days, which makes me pretty happy.

Hope you guys can get back to making it in sooner than later, such a good weekend. Meemommie misses you all.

Thought Big Scoupe would have a chance to break through on this Dre album but its whatever I guess.

The Bonz is like a fine wine. Happy birthday, bud.

My wife had lasik done on Monday and is back to work today. Still going to be a bit before everything is cleared up but that whole process if pretty remarkable.

Then you haven't paid much attention to his past 2 albums. Always features a new guy or two heavily, that's what Dre does. His albums are about production.

Definitely think you should skip out on this one though, as you're sure to hate it. You're way too cool for anything big bub... I'm sure it will be terrible like his other two have been.

Oh, and Warren G dropping an EP Thursday as well. :smiley: What year is this?
