11/6

Post by whiz wit » Tue Sep 20, 2022 11:46 am

Princeton Open scheduled for the same day as opener at home v Sacred Heart. LU normally sends a good size contingent of newbies and non starters to the Open. Choice would be between a full day event where you get to see a bunch of frosh and others in multiple bouts v a dual showing the team's starting line-up in action but which should be a blowout. Hmmmm.

Yes, a real quandary. Grace Hall, even with Sacred Heart, has a certain pageantry that's hard to beat. But Jadwin is also a nice place to watch wrestling. Which is closer to where you live?

Princeton's about 25 minutes closer. The dual will probably be in the afternoon which means I could grab a pre meet cheesesteak in Bethlehem whereas I usually have to bring a sandwich to the Open so I don't miss any of the action. That's another consideration.

**** Unfortunately, The Brass Rail which has always has The Best Cheesesteaks has finally closed as of July, (tge family retired), Stewarts near 18th and Walnut is still very good. I wish I could join you. Good cheesesteaks are few and far between in NC.

76 yo, 5' 10", 150-152 lb. and excellent cholesterol numbers - which has been the case for many years. It's ok to have some occasional unhealthy enjoyment in life, especially as a senior. Probably a good thing that one can't get a decent cheesesteak anywhere near where I live, though.

**** Mookie: I agree with Wit Whiz. We should not eat things that are not good for us ALL THE TIME, but occasionally, I think it does more harm than good to abstain from things that provide real pleasure occasionally. Loosen Up and Enjoy, especially when you are considering packaging a good cheesesteak and maybe and order of pierogies with a college wrestling match. I remember stopping at J's Steaks on the south side to get a giant cheesesteak to smuggle into Stabler for The Sheridan. It is not often you can bundle two of your favorite pleasures together.

Red meat too often is risky but my dad chose it EVERY option he had

Died of a stroke at 90, cholesterol avg 280 didn’t shorten his life
Zero heart procedures

Me? Chicken, fish, salads more often than red meat;?chol avg 150

1bypass; 7 stent procedures, 1 bypass
Don’t tell me eating right makes that much diff
