Anderson shares his personal journey with cardiovascular wellness—explaining how cutting-edge AI diagnostic tools from HeartFlow revealed hidden risks and empowered him to take control of his health. He also reflects on the stark physical transformation of the NFL from his playing era to the modern game, the economic necessity of quarterback protection, and his unique perspective on one of football’s fiercest rivalries: the Cincinnati Bengals versus the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let's get started this morning with news that I just completed my very first back-to-back country club experiences of my life. I'd never played private club golf – ever. As many of you know, I grew up in a farm town outside Dayton, Ohio. The closest I ever got to a private club was the front gate at Miami Valley Country Club along Salem Ave. as we were typically driving to downtown Dayton or to Good Sam Hospital.
Quick observations of the country club life:

Now let's pivot into the country club of college football experiences and what happened at Northwestern last night at the opener for Ryan Field, the new $900 million field that is a mini-modern NFL stadium with all the luxuries that NFL fans expect.
If Northwestern combines easier academic standards for its football players with this new stadium, this could be a college football franchise that makes some noise. This place is going to recruit itself. If boosters can improve NIL salaries – Northwestern is said to have half of Ohio State's $50-$55M NIL budget – watch out.

This is a big one. Jr.'s team hasn't lost an invitational during his middle school career. The only race they've lost in two years was last year's state championship. Today, the boys will be running on the shores of Lake Erie at a race they dominated last year. The weather should be perfect — 60 and sunny. No wind. I'm definitely no cross-country expert, but this seems like about as great as it's going to get.
Mike T. and Cindy T. are out and about soaking up some fresh air before winter kicks in.

This week was a reminder of why this job is just the best. I get to interview interesting people. I then get to play golf at interesting places with friends I've met through this job and live a pretty incredible life via what this column has evolved into.
None of it is lost on me. I owe it all to those of you who have read all these years and get what I'm trying to accomplish on a daily basis.
With that said, let's go have a great weekend. Don't forget to stop and smell the pumpkin spice candles and tell your wife how much you enjoy fall. She'll smile. Try it.
