If you're going to have a grizzly

When I was a pup, my father told me “If you’re going to have a bear, have a grizzly’

His wisdom had the most impact on what I eat, I’ve always been a healthy eater as rule but like most, life is not worth living without indulging in the delights that aren’t on the healthy list.

Sugar free drinks- Never, If I’m going to enjoy soft drink, which is usually in a bourbon, it must be the real deal.

Low fat milk, cheese, yogurt, and anything that claims to be low fat, not interested, I’d rather eat less of the real deal and none of the tasteless, artificially modified versions.

Low salt, again, I’m not remotely interested in a food that needs the right amount of salt for good taste only to be bland for the sake of minimal health benefits. I’d rather eat less full salt food and none of the tasteless salt reduced crap.

Mid strength alcohol, my all-time hate, what’s the point, what is worse than being bloated by mid-strength beer with a buzz your grandmother would attribute to her blue pills.

    • Lol Poppa, I didn’t put thought into the title, now that I have, I must delete the topic. 

  • I think everything in moderation no matter what you are doing.

    That goes for hobbies, relaxation and exercise. Too much of anything is not good for you but Gees it's tough to limit something that you love. Self control is something that I lack at times but I'm getting better...

"Yehez, he maybe a fullback and a winger. He may prove to be a better fullback than Illongi.....juniors careers can be moulded depending on the type of player you are working from. You are operating from a microcosm of what you have seen. Did you see…"

"Definitely give him a crack at no.6 or centre seeing as we don't have anyone decent playing in those spots. Can then cover for wing/fullback if anyone goes down during a game. I actually prefer him over Papalii "

"2024 was Richie's chance for FG. If he didn't do his ACL he would have gotten hefty game time, instead of the likes of Tago and Mulitalo. 
Injuries are getting the better of him and it is a shame."

"I think signing him for two years on a top 30 deal would be enough to keep him. He could be a Centre option or a 6 option or replace Joash if he goes in 2028. But at the same time if he feels he can start elsewhere then so be it. 
But at the moment…"
