Spurs announce Gregg Popovich suffered mild stroke, expected to make 'full recovery' but no timetable for return

I had a TIA (transient ischemic attack) in 2004, got trucked to the hospital, and i was back at work in two weeks. I was seriously impaired at first; my speech and movement was really messed up.

Within a couple days, I got back on my feet, but I was shuffling pretty erratically. I thought my speech was really messed up, but other people said it sounded ok.

And I still have some effects even now -- in fact, my handwriting ability went totally to shit, and has never returned.

 

Now we know ... the rest of the story. Good day!

Giannis with 59 points in OT win over the Pistons. Bucks get the ball with 10 seconds left, and he dutifully dribbles out the clock in today's "Quit Trying As Soon As You Possibly Can, Or Somebody Will Get Mad" environment.

 

Last night was cup game; I think tonight is a routine one. I could be wrong.

 

Are you mad that a team down 7 didn’t foul with 10 seconds to go in OT? How would they even get 3 possessions?
