I Had It Wrong -- Ralph Could Outlive This New 10 Year Lease

[Guest]

I figured the chances of a 95 year old male living another 9 years was pretty much zero, but the actuary tables don't support that.

Check this out ==> http://plus.maths.org/content/unders...-will-you-live

See the chart under the heading The Force of Mortality.

Ralph turned 95 last October.

The chart shows that a male who is 95 has a 26.4% chance of dying before his next birthday.

The chart shows that a male who is 96 has a 28.2% chance of dying before his next birthday.

The chart shows that a male who is 97 has a 30.6% chance of dying before his next birthday.

The chart shows that a male who is 98 has a 33.1% chance of dying before his next birthday.

The chart shows that a male who is 99 has a 33.1% chance of dying before his next birthday.

The chart shows that a male who is 100 has a 37.2% chance of dying before his next birthday.

In other words, the odds are in Ralph's favour every year of making his next birthday.

Those are averages and with Ralph's wealth and thus access to the best health care possible, one would think his percentages are even better.

I, therefore, must conclude and say -- GO Russ GO!!!

.736 * .728 *.694*.669 etc...

So yeah, about a 10% chance give or take.

Jimmifli, homers have cheered on new seasons hoping the Bills make the play-offs with odds worse than that.

The steel industry could be coming back to Buffalo soon as well.

No more negativity from me.

I have joined the Better Days TrainTM since it involves less thinking and more blind faith.

GO Russ GO!!!

Ralph is immortal. He's going to outlive us all.

What's the difference between a mosquito and the bills?

I already admitted I was wrong. Was that insult necessary? I have feelings too.

I suspect that one of two things is true:

1) Ralph died some years ago, and its been Weekend at Bernie's mode for so long that the team must focus on concealing Ralph's death to the extent that they forget about winning

2) Ralph is a demon who will not die.

I'm just astonished you admitted you were wrong, old son.

Diff tween a Mosquito and the Bills is the size of their shoes.

Because your scheming an old man's death, and prey for that day. You also put down Buffalo all the time on a Buffalo forum, after never having lived there.

Ralph's death and the aftermath is THE biggest issue facing the Buffalo Bills in their 53 year existence. You crave the Bills to be relevant again and there will be no bigger story in the NFL than the transfer of ownership once Ralph departs. Get used to it. Who is our safety this year is irrelevant by comparison.
