I lost a good friend 23 months ago to that same thing, NW.
You have my deep sympathy.  That is a hard disease to deal with.

I appreciate that, Utee.
I remember awhile back you lost your friend Greg.
My friend's name was Greg too.
It's tough watching someone you care about having his central nervous system waste away.
. . .
On a happier note, I took my mother to lunch yesterday at the aforementioned Ike's Chili.
I had the 2-way--chili over spaghetti. Yes, I used Tabasco sauce on it.
Mom had the "straight" bowl of chili.  She couldn't eat it all, so I gladly finished it off.

Yes C-Dubb.  Although it was actually Greg's wife, Denise.  She was also a very close friend of mine, and my wife's.  Breast cancer sucks.

Now my FIL has cancer as well, non-Hodgkins lymphoma in his digestive tract.  It's supposedly very treatable and he's about halfway in.  We're all praying for a full recovery.

That's a bunch of cancer piled up on your loved ones, Utee. You have my best wishes for speedy and lasting recoveries.

Cancer really sucks.  My wife has it running through both sides of her family, and she's had a bunch of skin cancer cut off and cut out, but she has dodged the deadly bullets so far.

So what happened with Baker Mayfield ?  Looks like Cleveland dumped him. I thought he was doing pretty good there, but I don’t watch much nfl.

Dunno, I don't ever follow NFL outside of the actual season.

I was hoping the resident Sooner fans would chime in.  Houston sent Deshaun Watson to Cleveland, now Baker Mayfield is on the chopping block.  Like I said, I don't follow NFL that much, was just curious what they're take is.  Of course Deshaun has his own problems following him, seems kind of strange Cleveland would risk losing him before the season starts.

I believe Mayfield is going into his last contract year. Cleveland just spent $230mil on Watson. That's not "backup" money, so he feels like Cleveland's moving on from him.

I think Mayfield's a punk, but this looks like another reason why Cleveland gets high draft picks. They're chronically mismanaged. Baker's an above average QB. Not great, but serviceable with an NFL quality offense. Cleveland was on the verge of fielding one, but now they're jettisoning another top draft choice for a flashy, expensive piece of a puzzle that was already filled. Much like Dallas did with Jerry Jones and Barry Switzer, they bring in the big, high-dollar names, but don't understand the role level players that actually make a team function.

I think that Baker Mayfield should have gotten his non-throwing-shoulder labrum fixed after getting hurt early last season.  He tried to play through it and had his worse season.  Bad mistake, as I see it.

De Shaun Watson is a bigger talent than Mayfield.  But I don't think he's going to take Cleveland to the Promised Land.  He's going to be getting a lot of money that could be going for better trench ponies.

Doesn't Mayfield live in that stadium?  Will they serve him an eviction notice?  Who will water the planters outside?
