    Those quotes are pretty important. This is the second time he's been "free" of cancer. =\

    Reminds me of one of my favorite song lyrics.

    "If life's a bitch then death's a slut, because death comes for everyone, and when it's your turn; you're fucked."

    There are no guarantees in life, there is always risk the cancer returns.

    Maybe karma will be in our favor and we'll get a healthy team and owner this coming season. I'm really happy for Paul and his health. I pray that his cancer doesn't come back

    Great for him. Cancer is a horrible disease. The only downside is now he will most certainly have to look at BGrantFan's avatar in person

    Hopefully, this isn't remission. In the cases I've been close to, remission indicates that they expect the cancer to return. Being deemed cancer free indicates that the cancer is gone. Here's hoping it's the latter.

    Great news for Paul being Cancer free. I hope him many more long years.

    I remember reading something about :Larry Miller having a deal with Paul for the team if he ever decided to sell it.
