He has every resource at his fingertips; world class nutritionists, world class trainers, world class gym equipment, millions of dollars, and on and on.

He’s had some tough things happen in his life, with his children and all. But wouldn’t you think he’d be motivated to make healthy changes?

Kinda makes me sad for him. And for us - he can’t keep doing this forever, Especially in his current state.


Why would I (or anyone) feel "sad" for Reid? He's a grown man. And, believe it or not, some folks are just "big". Does the thought of a 315 pound lineman make you "sad"?

That’s interesting, because the cheapest foods are the unhealthiest, and the healthy foods are expensive.

I’m not at all surprised to see unhealthy poor people.

Sometimes, yeah.

I grew up like five doors down from Will Shields (wasn’t fat); but he seemed to always be in pain.

He said once that the worst thing you can do to a lineman in real life is give them a hard handshake, because their hands are in so much pain.

Different subject, I guess, but yeah. It’s got to suck carrying around all the extra goo.

Welp, just saw Tony Sparano died. This was timely I guess.

we have no real choice as fans. We can give up. Stop following etc. but, it is forbidden to switch teams because your team sucks. Basic fan 101.

We are stuck together with the rise and fall of our team.

Rex Ryan dropped the weight. I do wish reid would do the same just because I want him around through the end of Mahomes HOF career.

But hey, he's a big ole teddy Bear and the players love him.

I mean NFL coaches, not overweight guys. But congrats on the 100. That's awesome!

Nope, not at all.

Just think about the teams drive to win a SuperBowl for their dear departed coach if Andy were to drop dead during the season.:D

Eat up Andy, eat up.:D

I was just talking about fatness. Eating a big grass-fed burger might be less likely to give him cancer than a Big Mac, but it won't make him any less fat.

Someone below poverty level shouldn't be able to eat a huge amount of anything. Although, sugar is far and away the biggest factor. They're probably spending half their food stamps on Always Save cola.

Well sure, if you’re looking at the same food type, and calorie count, then yes the fatness will be the same.

That said, the wealthy person has the financial ability to purchase healthier food because their income provides more options. When you have three dollars in your pocket, and you need to feel full for the day, you can’t get a 10 dollar salad from a sit down restaurant where you need to tip.

You hit the dollar menu at a drive through.
