    Wowsers. Non-Hodgkins lymphoma, diagnosed in May but doctors thought he could keep going through the season.

    He's coaching this weekend, though it doesn't say beyond that.

    He's apparently known he's had lymphoma since May and had treatment in the summer.

    Oh and BTW ... it wasn't noticed much at the time, but Mizzou's med school dean resigned in September after 10 months and under mysterious circumstances that have yet to be explained ... and now faculty over there are demanding that he be brought back.

    Faculty call for former MU School of Medicine dean's reinstatement

    What a fucking tire fire. Think I'm gonna hold off shipping that donation this year just yet.

    Your excerpts have people declining to confirm details, and second hand sources.

    That's great journalism?

    It took 10 days to confirm the nature of the vandalism, and that was thanks to Conservative outlets that had to file FOIA requests to do so.

    In the mean time, outlets like the WaPo wrote about it, with no apparent confirmation, other than previous news reports.

    He's finishing out the season.

    Conservative outlets. Right. Because I am certain the LIBRUHL MEDIA didn't file FOIA requests for the police. You have no fucking clue what you're talking about. Journalism isn't always immediate. Report the facts as you know them. And not a single person denied that it happened. You think as soon as the Missourian called the police, they would just hand over a police report and photos? Just go away.

    The notion that I despise journalism is too laughable to respond to.

    That's fine. I'd prefer you not respond anyway.

    Can one use Internet message board tales of bravery to get laid?

    As for the police report, I used to go to the police department and go over the reports every day I worked. Never had to file a request. Research can be done away from the office.

    Is it not just too perfect that little mister bullhorn on the left is wearing a Che Guevara shirt?
