Dickie V diagnosed with lymphoma

I hate Cancer.

I would guess there is concern that at least some of the lesions are malignant.

Dysplasia is many times precancerous lesions. Uggh.

This is starting to feel like what we just saw Jerry Remy go through in Boston. Dude was a warrior who battled cancer over and over again, and each time that awful adversary came back in a new and cruel way.

I hope he has a few more years left. When Remy threw out the pitch during the playoffs I had a terrible feeling and it unfortunately turned out to be true. H
e is the greatest ambassador for the game we have had.

After all these years as a color man he's finally doing some play-by-play.

I lost my good friend Mike to cancer this morning. Mike was a long time SU fan and a great lacrosse player at West Genny.

I've always been a big fan of Dicky but I guess you don't totally appreciate someone until they are critically ill. Dicky V. is a true legend in basketball history.

Watery eyes.

Condolences Roger. He sounds like he was a great guy.

I was never a big fan of his announcing but that doesn't matter now. Everything I've read about him suggests that's a good guy and he's fighting for his life. That's what matters.

[djcon57]

Amazing. Hope to at least see him make an appearance at the Final 4 in front of the crowd

 

[hoopsupstate]

Can’t wait until he comes back next year. He’s all about college basketball.

Cancer can kiss my ass. My dad had small cell carcinoma, which they caught pretty late due to the incompetence of his Doctors. Surgery was very rough and I couldn’t bring myself to see him. They split his face open from the jaw and had to maneuver around major arteries in the neck to do whatever they needed to do. I don’t know all the details as it was too tough to hear about. It ended up coming back twice in his lungs. My father is a warrior and he beat it and has been cancer free since 2013.
