My age. Boo mortality!Particularly the way too and very premature sort. Hiss.
Chris is walking around in his new slippers, singing, "Stomp stomp stomp! Doing the Yeti stomp." I much prefer that to mortality.
Good luck. Try not to kill people. Hands! Hands!

What is even happening?

Isn't 43 awfully young to be having a heart attack, even for people who aren't conditioned professional athletes?

He's been dealing with some sort of chronic respiratory problem for several years. Though, of course, one can't help wonder if there were any steroids involved considering we're talking about one of the strongest guys who ever played defensive end. That would be contrary, though, to his reputation and I don't meant to slander him.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Isn't 43 awfully young to be having a heart attack, even for people who aren't conditioned professional athletes?
Yup. Yesterday they just said he died in his sleep and they didn't know why, but he suffered from sleep apnea. I can't read anything at the other end of that link, has heart attack been reported?

I heard heart attack on the radio this morning, but if you've seen a written report stating no certain cause I'd take that as more reliable than the Morning Zoo Crew.
White was one of my least favorite people that I've never actually met, so I'll confess my thoughts upon hearing the news were rather uncharitable. But my sympathies do go out to any loved ones he left behind.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

The thing is, being so conditioned and being in such a rough sport also takes a toll on the heart. Also, he could have just been prone to them, if that is what he actually died from.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Also? Sleep Apnea isn't exactly good for the system.
Sounds like a combination of factors, despite my Cousin Steve immediately determining it to be "Drugs!"

Still on hold. I think I am near the 2 hour mark.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Especially the larger guys from the NFL--once they stop being so active, the muscle tends to turn to fat and they are prone to the problems that go with that (apnea and heart disease, etc.) 43 is WAY, WAY too young.
I totally appreciate when my non-Jewish friends send me cards or call to wish me happy hannukah, and I really don't expect them to keep track of the lunar year and always hit me in time
I keep track because my neighbor lady is Jewish (actually a LOT of my neighbors are). She makes an effort to wish me happy holidays so I try to be neighborly in that small way. Although this year she went to Israel for Chanukah.

Is the Yeti Stomp a Backyardigans thing?
