OMG

We should stop calling it the dome and just refer to it as " The Pearl"

" hey. you going to the pearl to watch the game?"

I always called it "The Oyster". I think it's would be appropriate to have a basketball statue to go with Ernie's FB statue, perhaps and action shot of Pearl laujnching from mid-court. And I'd live him to be there fore the dedication.

I don't care that we lost Robert Washington. I don't want to lose Pearl Washington.

If you can beat BC from half court, this should be easy. Fight, Pearl, fight!

We all love Pearl I appreciate the moments burned into memory.A gift for the ages and the aged.

Prayers to Pearl and his family and close friends. Dickie V will definitely come out in support of Pearl as will the world.

Have been concerned since no updates had been given. Driving home from a trip and pulled up the news. Was like a punch in the gut. Prayers to Pearl and his family.

Horrible, horrible news. On behalf of the Sons and Daughters of Georgetown, we continue to pray for Pearl and his family. Rivalries mean nothing in the face of cancer; we are united with you.

I agree. I really hope Pearl or his family gave Pete the OK to break this. Two of us here knew about this on Friday but knew it wasn't our place to make it public in a message board. If Pete wasn't given the OK it's not right when it comes to a personal matter such as this.

Be strong Pearl. Kick its ass like its a Hoya.

I am sorry but this is really poor taste. There are a few of us who chat offline when someone says "I knew about this last week, but didn't say anything" and have a really good time with it. But to brag about knowing about someone's poor health outcome before the rest of the board is downright shameful.

This post should be tacked as an example of "Think before you post".

Sorry, you're way off base. Not a thing wrong with the content or tone of that post, IMO, and he was in no way bragging.

The point wasn't about knowing. The point was if you know something personal such as this, it's not appropriate to make it public. The post was about Vescey breaking it and it not being cool, UNLESS the family gave him the OK. Then it's all good. So you misread the post completely.

I think you could have made the point, without throwing the fact that you knew on Friday. It happens all the time on this board, and people get a pretty good laugh out of it. It doesn't need to happen when you are talking about such a sensitive topic such as this. Some discretion should have been used.

One could argue that it is in poor taste to incite an argument in a thread of this nature.

You gotta open a lot of oysters to find a pearl. But this Pearl was the only one of a kind. Ditto God Bless the Pearl

If there is private public prayer vigil, has there also been a public update on this condition. Presumably things aren't particularly rosey if there is a prayer vigil. Sorry if I missed it posted elsewhere.

like a 1000x Every time I see a post with Pearl Washington, I have been holding my breath.

 

[pfister1]

It's good that it is coming from a Man of Faith, but I would really rather see this from a doctor.

 

[Cheriehoop]

I imagine it's going to be up and down and day to day.
