Dammit...this one hurts. One of my favorite players to watch in the NBA, dead at fifty-eight from brain cancer. Dammit, dammit, dammit...

FUCK. Cancer. Up the ass. With a spike-studded spatula.

That really does suck... It does often seem that "only the good die" young ( Too often that is)..The best of the best, my mom..OF COURSE I'M BIASED..35 years old..I was 17,.. Life really isn't fucking fair too often..Hold a seat for me at the head table, please Mom....I was probably out of line with this post, I apologize. I 'm going on 74, I may be over it in maybe another 98 years or so, but probably not..

It's okay, Mike. You weren't out of line; just channeling grief, which is better than keeping it in. I don't know what I'd do if I lost my mom; it was hard enough losing my Cousin Irv (to a heart attack) and Uncle Danny (to leukemia) - two of the kindest men I think I've ever known. I'm so sorry for your loss; life is not fair, and we don't get over our losses, but we try our best with what we have.
