OT: Jerry Buss has a few days to live...dying of cancer As much as I hate the Lakers, I find it hard to hate Dr. Buss. He seems like a good owner and a good guy. http://www.am570radio.com/cc-common/mainheadlines3.html?feed=407832&article=10820200
Re: OT: Jerry Buss has a few days to live...dying of cancer I always thought his self-made story was pretty interesting. I don't have much else to say I guess, except death comes for us all
Re: OT: Jerry Buss has a few days to live...dying of cancer Pretty much all of us hate the Lakers for rivalry reasons. When it comes to life or death I think most of us on here don't want to see anything like career threatening injuries or death happen to anyone.
Re: OT: Jerry Buss has a few days to live...dying of cancer yeah..as much as I hate the Lakers..he was a gret owner, first class guy
Re: OT: Jerry Buss has a few days to live...dying of cancer That sucks. I'm going to kind of a living wake in about hour myself actually. I have a friend that is going into hospice care shortly. Sad.
Always liked him on High Stakes Poker. Dont know much about him but the respect his peers talk about him with it sounds like he was a class act. Sad to hear of this. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
Re: OT: Jerry Buss has a few days to live...dying of cancer Imagine the family fights that will determine Laker moves from now on.
Re: OT: Jerry Buss has a few days to live...dying of cancer It would not surprise me to see the lakers eventually sold (for a LARGE sum of money..like well over a billion). Or somehow Phil Jackson comes in and becomes part of an ownership (since he's bonin' the owners daughter)
Re: OT: Jerry Buss has a few days to live...dying of cancer You may be good, but I'm watching for my big chance. Beware!
Re: OT: Jerry Buss has a few days to live...dying of cancer About 10 years ago, I was at Blondies in NYC watching a Blazers game when I spotted Jerry watching Lakers/Suns with two very young women. Then I overheard a third on the phone telling another woman to come because "Jerry's Here." The place was mostly empty and I introduced myself, told him I hated the Lakers and that I thought they'd lose in the playoffs to the Spurs that year (and they did.). Nonetheless, he bought drinks for my friend and I. As Nik said, death comes for all of us. Doesn't matter if we wish it or not.
Re: OT: Jerry Buss has a few days to live...dying of cancer As a Lakers' fan, this sucks. Whether you're a Laker hater or fan, I think its hard to argue against him being one hell of an owner. Hopefully his final days are peaceful.
Re: OT: Jerry Buss has a few days to live...dying of cancer Always a great owner. The NBA lost a great owner when he stepped down
Re: OT: Jerry Buss has a few days to live...dying of cancer sounds like he passed away this morning. Cancer sucks man
