^ AS's article on it.

Sounds like Tito's cancer may be coming back. Awful.

My best friend lost his mom 3 years ago to it ... he was 22 and she had been fighting it since I high school.

They were my second family so I feel like I know first hand what that type of pain/loss can cause. It's something that I think about all the time and has changed my view on life so much.

I friend of mine died of cancer just under a year ago. He was the first person from my graduating high school class to go. He was an only child. It was very, very sad.

Bombazo. Just saw it. That really, really sucks. No matter how you slice it, or position it.

Some reports saying they'll announce early next week and it will definitely be from outside the club.

Ray Hudson had some kind words:

I've just been reading the Barca forum I frequent, but they have Jupp, de Boer, Landrup, AVB, and Bielsa.I realize all have complications on getting them. Buy tweets I've been seeing from reputable sources are saying things like "the new manager may currently be with a club" and "Barcelona have prepared for this and had a plan B in place" which would explain why they can say with certainty they'll announce next week. And if he is with another club right now that would explain why it'll take a few days to be announced.

Bielsa is out of contract, no? same with Jupp. what is the problem for those two?

eta: would be super hilarious and awesome if Jupp came out of retirement and took over Barça and then Jupp/Barça v. Pep/Bayern happened.

Jupp has said he wants to be done coaching. He'd be a great hire for Barca though. I love Papa Jupp
