I wouldn't wish cancer on my worst enemy. Glad to hear that he's on the mend.

Good on Deion, I hope he is feeling better. Battling that can be debilitating, kudos for him to not only beat it, but also continue to work hard and lead Colorado to ten wins while doing so.

Best of all, Deion Sanders jokes he “depends on Depends” and “if you see a Port-a-Potty on the sideline, it’s real.” while bringing awareness. Good for you Coach Prime.

Having your bladder removed is a life changing event. I have first hand knowledge. I wear an ostomy pouch and never travel too far from a toilet.

If that's Dion's situation it will take some getting used to. The clothes you wear, how you sleep, intimacy, all are affected.

Good news is that usually the cancer is all contained within the bladder.

Wish him well.

Coach Prime’s brash bravado rubs many the wrong way but he does provide entertainment while displaying true passion for the game.

Best wishes Coach.

While I am challenged to defend Prime's approach, demeanor and public facade over the years, his bravery, courage and candor in a battle with cancer is admirable and graceful.

The man is a conundrum for me.
