    Does Lanny have kids? I know he has expressed many times his love for his wife. I hope she’s hanging in there.

    No kids, the line to be adopted by Lanny starts behind me.

    I wrote and deleted some satirical posts but didn’t want to give the wrong message which is that Lanny is legendary, not that he’s old.

    Such as That it’s rumored Christopher Columbus threw Lanny overboard when he was actually the first one to discover America.

    I hope Lanny pulls through. I've always wanted to ask him if he knew my dad, because I think he did.

    Spoke with Lanny.

    He's having an angiogram Monday and then heart surgery later in the week.

    Overwhelmed when I told him how many posts and warm wishes this thread has.

    He thanks all of you.

    Also, he must be on some really good drugs because he was convinced that the Blazers had traded Lillard for Mitchell.

    Now if this can all play out correctly. The Blazers can win Summer League. They can get their Rings and you can give him the ring @Natebishop3 buys you.
    Wouldn't that be cool?

    Yeah the kinds of drugs he's probably on will definitely give you nightmares.

    It's very good news that he's having the surgery. It should mean that he's in good enough condition for it to be successful.

    Exactly. They would continue to postpone if they felt their was a big risk of his healthy creating complications.
