BREAKING - Fox Sports Detroit just announced that Kirk Gibson is dealing with Parkinson's disease. Prayers & well wishes go out. Statement from Gibby, via FSD...
damn, that sucks, but thanks for posting it, will. i had an uncle, ages ago, with parkinson's. at the time, it was very debilitating. we rarely saw him as a result. i'll have to do some reading, i really hope they've made progress with this disease in the last 50 years. the one positive i can think of here is that gibby strikes me as a guy with a lot of willpower and determination. i've got to think he's better equipped for this kind of fight than most folks.
Well said, Lulz. I can only imagine if it took gumption, piss and vinager to lick this, Gibby has what it takes.
