    Those are just the extreme ends of the spectrum, we do know by scientific data that someone who eats a healthy diet and exercise live longer on average.

    The point is that there are genetic factors and variance that fall outside of our control.

    Your point is true, and thought your example was just a simple 'not always' argument and wanted to add there are proven aspects people can control to enhance health. Both statements are true.

    What you control seems to be a lot less important than what you cannot control.

    A typical example is the "Hispanic Paradox" in the USA

    Of course they didn't use Queen (Spa.) because that is "REINA."

    Probably won't get one until season wrap up time in a couple weeks I'd guess.

    That Dortmund injury list is impressive. Nearly half their squad.

    German teams seem super tight lipped on injuries which I find greatly annoying.

    I know it's USMNT stuff but Greg said a couple of weeks ago that Gio is not healthy enough for a call to the June camp.

    Has anything been disclosed on the extent of the injury? The only "good news" I can glean is that he apparently didn't have a surgery otherwise we would have heard about it, I assume.
