LOL...playoffs are on and it seems like they are an afterthought when CFB is going. Texas up 1-0 on TB in the 4th...this series seems like a foregone conclusion IMO.

Anyhoo, alltime great Tony Gwynn diagnosed with cancer and he suspects it was from chewing tobacco.

Quote:
"They say this is a slow-moving but aggressive form of cancer," Gwynn told the Union-Tribune from his Poway home. "I'm going to be aggressive and not slow-moving in treating this."

Gwynn said he thought the cancer was most likely related to his use of chewing tobacco throughout his career.

"I haven't discussed that with the doctors yet, but I'm thinking it's related to dipping," said Gwynn, who said he had failed to drop the habit despite the previous mouth procedures.
