    Default Don Garber has prostate cancer

    http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/articl...prostate-cance

    Whether you love him or hate him, he's done a lot for MLS.

    Good luck and best wishes to the Don
    “Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.

    I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’

    And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”

    -Eduardo Galeano

    That's tough. Good luck, Don.
    "Failure simply isn't an option at this stage. TFC pushed its chips to the middle of the table when it splurged on Bradley and Defoe and reinforced its bet by making savvy acquisitions elsewhere. This collection of players is capable of delivering on the promises made during the close season. There are no more excuses available for TFC. Only success will continue the process of atoning for the past and establishing a higher standard for the future." FOX Sports

    The good news is that they caught it early, so they'll be able to treat it and he'll make a full recovery.

    Very good news. Somebody in my family went though this recently and it was a pretty straight forward procedure. Best of luck to Don, hope he has a speedy recovery and walks in to the 2015 CBA like Scrooge after a bad dream.

    Very unfortunate news. Not something I would wish upon anyone. I hope he has a quick and full recovery.

    Glad they caught this early; with today's advancement in technology, it is a very beatable cancer when detected early

    side note: guys, if you are over 40, get tested, your loved one's will thank you
