Do you know how fast cancer can brake even the very well off? WOW, you must be under 25 or have no family.
Of course I do. It's a terrible fricking disease... And no, I'm not under 25 and no family... Just think the trend of every sad story including a companion gofundme link to be disconcerting is all... Perhaps if all were done for serious serious cancer cases my opinion would be different but of course that's not the case... It's cool though bro, we don't need to agree.

Prayers to Hokie. He's a good dude. Let's get back on track.

One of mine and my dads favorite all time players as a TIGER. We loved to hear his name called on the radio. He is one of the all time tough guys for LSU and the Saints, praying for complete healing HoKie. God Bless.

I agree. Thankfully I haven't had to battle anything this bad but I'd really have to be financially in dire straights to have the stones to ask other people, especially strangers, to pay me money. Isn't this what insurance is for?

Best of luck to him. I was diagnosed with colon cancer a month ago and had surgery recently. Haven't even started treatment, but am lucky as frick mine is as treatable as it is.
All the best.

Scouted Baker back in the day for EJHS in first round of the playoffs. What a show he put on. Only later would I realize that Hokie was as great or greater of a person than athlete. Such a special guy...my prayers are so with him and his family. He in no way deserves what is happening. Who knows how great a career he would have had without the injury?

Best of luck to you,Hokie,as you battle this tragic form of cancer.Prayers for you and your family.

Responses like yours annoy the frick out of me. Unlike TAXES no one is forcing ANYONE to contribute to it.

Prays sent. I met Mr. Gajan as a kid I won a fishing pole from some contest at Napa and he gave it to me personally. Gave me a signed football that I still have at my parents house.

I was in the SE upper on 09/29/79 for the hallowed USC game. I remember Hokie bulling for five or six yards up the middle on our first play to set the tone for an incredible game.
ETA: And of course my thoughts are with Hokie. Get well Hokie!!!
