    Not really sports related...you can move this over if you want...but this is a pretty touching story. And tragic. And inspiring.

    Sorry to keep posting Purdue stuff...but it's what I see.

    Stu, I read the article this morning n our local paper. I agree. What a tragic yet inspiring story of a very special young man.

    Warning to others: If you choose to read the article, which I recommend, have kleenex handy.

    Cancer sucks, esp for young people who should have their whole life ahead of them.

    Good story, Stu.
