As you may know cocaine and meth are the most commonly linked drugs to aneurysms.
interesting aspersion to cast
Not casting anything, just a fact. There are other reasons potentially as well
Key Reasons Young Men Get Aneurysms
- Genetic Predisposition: Some individuals are born with, or inherit, conditions that cause weak blood vessel walls, such as Marfan syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, or Loeys-Dietz syndrome.
- Family History: A family history of aneurysms significantly increases risk, often leading to them occurring at a younger age.
- Lifestyle Factors: High stress, smoking, and the use of hard drugs (especially cocaine or amphetamines) can cause high blood pressure and directly weaken artery walls, increasing risk.
- Trauma: A severe head injury can cause a traumatic brain aneurysm in younger individuals.
- Infection: Although rare, infections can lead to mycotic aneurysms.

An old acquaintance of mine had a massive aneurism last week and his wife called me crying that he would unlikely live through it. He’s in his mid / late 50’s and had several people in his fammily die from the same issue - hence the genetic predisposition.

Strictly speaking an aneurysm does not kill a person. However if that aneurysm is in a major blood vessel and it bursts, it most likely will kill them.

Have they folded yet? No way a 19 team comp will be sustainable.
Haven’t they won a flag yet? I would’ve thought super coach Klakko would have led them to one by now.
Flog.
