Re: Sad news (even for Celtics fans)

Michael:

I just read an article on Mourning and was thinking almost the same 
thing.  However, my main beef is with the officials.  How can you not 
call goal tending when the shooter is shooting down at the basket.  If 
my memory is correct, he was above the rim and released the ball down 
towards the goal.  So, it had to be goaltending.

However, I never really was any kind of Mourning fan, but this is a 
cruel thing to happen to anyone.  Has the cause of his aliment every 
been confirmed?  For some reason, I am thinking that he was taking too 
much tylenol or the like for pain.  This was to allow him to play ball?  
Is that even close to correct?

In any event,  I join you in your wishes for Mourning.

Peace,

Bentz
