James Harrison is a beast, a terror on the football field and thirty-eight years old. Thirty-eight might as well be 100 years old in terms of playing in the NFL. To explain his longevity, at one point Harrison commented that he spends around $500,000 a year on training, massage, and other body work to keep himself game ready. However, Al-Jazeera came out recently with a list of players that have allegedly used Performance Enhancing Drugs (PEDs) and that list included James Harrison. The NFL has said that Harrison could be suspended indefinitely if he does not testify about these allegations. At thirty-eight, any suspension could essentially equal a retirement for Harrison. Part of me says, of course he is using PEDs. I think most players in the NFL are using these drugs just to stay on the field. It will be interesting to see how this turns out.

I missed who was being interviewed on the radio this morning as I drove into the gym. The interview had started before I got on the road and ended some time after I got out of the car. I did find the words of the political commentator valuable as he brought up a very valid point: "People have been saying that they may not vote because choosing either Trump or Clinton, depending on your perspective... is simply 'Choosing the lesser of two evils...' When given this choice in life, one should always choose LESS evil. Good rule for life having less evil in the world." So vote.... and choose the lesser of two evils.
