Skip Prosser - DEAD
 
Just found out that Skip Prosser died today from a heart attack. He was jogging today in Winston-Salem and collapsed. He went to the hospital but nothing could be done. My prayers and thoughts go out to he and his family, players, ex-players, coaches and everyone else that had the wonderful opportunity to meet this man.

RIP Skip....had some highly touted freshmen coming into the program! Condolences to family and friends.

Terrific coach gone way to soon, RIP Skip, condolences to his family, and the Wake Forest folks as well, he will be missed.:(

I do still pop in from time to time....and should not because I really don't want to be here,but when I read selected tripe I am very much challenged to restrain from posting.



But let me ask HODown a question.




Do you enjoy opening a thread with a deceased's name followed by the word...DEAD?


Are you a newspaper headline chief or something?


If you have to post it can't you just say "passes away" or something easier on the eye?















Why I bother really beats me.

Gotta agree with Morty on this one. Topic caption was maybe a little too strong.

Being in the college basketball business, this came as a big shock to all of the CBB fraternity. He was a great coach & family man. Many coaches out there are sleaze, just using these kids for personal gain, but not this coach! I loved his post game comments that the "kids won the games, not him!"

We need more guys like Coach P in the college ranks to help guide our young people in the right direction in life!

Mortimer 07-29-2007 09:49 AM

Thank you for applauding my fine work.


It's just not HODown..many people seem to enjoy posting someones demise........and by always styling it thusly:





What'shis/her name..........DEAD.












Let's not pretend we are New York Post headline advisors.

ALostTexan 07-29-2007 10:51 AM

Cannot believe that I am going to agree with Morty, but I do agree 100%. It is not just in the newspapers, but on TV news, too. Pretty sick way to put it...

Coach Pants 07-29-2007 12:21 PM

I can only imagine what Whodey's headline will be when Nick Zito passes.

ninetoone 07-29-2007 12:22 PM

The all caps "DEAD" took it over the top for me...

If you only knew....but you're getting there.

Mortimer 07-29-2007 04:03 PM

This I am sure will cause rioting...but...




..and I'm just sayin'.....but I personally ...and it's just the way I think.....I don't know about posting a request for prayers regarding deaths or people in trouble.


I just think it's dumb.





What's worse is when replies like..."PRAYERS OUT!!"...."PRAYERS ON THE WAY!!"......"YOU GOT 'EM TONIGHT BUDDY!"
























God.

Showering on a regular basis is a good start to having people like you.
