Buffalo Bills Legend Jim Kelly to Undergo Surgery for Cancer in Jaw
BY ALEX KAY (FEATURED COLUMNIST) ON JUNE 3, 2013

Legendary Buffalo Bills quarterback Jim Kelly will undergo surgery after being diagnosed with Squamous-cell carcinoma (cancer) of the upper jaw bone.

According to a press release by his former club, the procedure will be performed on Friday, June 7, and his chances for a complete recovery are “very good.” Fortunately, the cancer is isolated in Kelly’s upper jaw and has not spread to other parts of his body.

Kelly thanked fans for their support and noted that his wife and children would be by his side on the road to recovery. He mentioned that he would appreciate any prayers going forward for himself and his family.

This is unsettling news for Buffalo fans and NFL supporters around the globe. Kelly played for the Bills from 1986 through 1996 and was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2002.

During his time in upstate New York, Kelly helped lead his franchise to four straight Super Bowl appearances from 1990 through 1993. He was elected to five Pro Bowls, made three All-Pro teams and still remains the Bills' leader in all-time passing yards—with 35,467—17 years after his retirement.

Kelly was a major contributor in the USFL early in his career, playing for the Houston Gamblers in 1984 through 1985 and winning MVP honors before the organization folded and the league collapsed shortly afterwards.

Despite running up against some of best opponents in NFL history during those Super Bowl runs, the 53-year-old signal-caller may now be facing his toughest challenge yet.

Hopefully, the surgery is successful and Kelly beats his cancer to make a full recovery and return to leading a normal life in short order.

Hopefully all goes well and he's able to make a full recovery.

Speaking of shocking

This is probably one of the weirdest cases ever in watching for an NFL player. Which also implicates fantasy issues for the Pats :/

Da....fuq....

You know they must've gotten a MAJORLY sweet paycheque if they're agreeing to do shit this crazy.

WTH, Tebow? A 0.0 QB rating?

Got this from a football site- How do you say Tony Romo in Spanish?- Mark Sanchez.

Preseason has been the usual... only making fantasy harder to choose

THUNDERDUCK · « **Reply #2307 on:** August 26, 2013, 05:08:45 AM »

I think 3 people stormed the field at the Niners-Viking game. Damn TV camera panned out of the stadium when the field was stormed

^ and it's never the pretty ladies who are the streakers.

We need one more player to make the teams even so we can draft. If you know someone who wants to play with the best Fantasy Sports League on the planet, tell em to sign up. Some dude from last year didn't renew. He's missing out on BIG PRIZE.

If there's no one else who wants to jump into our league, there's another (Miya fan

might take some issue with my team name lol) who expressed an interest in joining last year, but someone else snagged the last spot first. I can probably get the word out to him to join during the day Sunday even if we need to, but don't wanna ask before seeing if anyone else is interested, since he got gyped last year.

I have a feeling he'd fully participate too, unlike some of the players we have at times.

kuro808 · « **Reply #2310 on:** August 30, 2013, 09:42:01 PM »

We would need another person to add if your friend joins rokun. So anyone wants to jump in go ahead now

rokun · « **Reply #2311 on:** August 30, 2013, 10:28:46 PM »

We've got 13 now don't we? We need 14 to proceed? Or did the redesign cancel the need for that? Either way I think I'll ask him if he wants to join, cause byes aren't fun... lol.

kuro808 · « **Reply #2312 on:** August 30, 2013, 11:42:26 PM »

Rokun go ask him

I was looking at the matchups not the list of teams ^^;;

rokun · « **Reply #2313 on:** August 31, 2013, 02:44:39 AM »

Yeah the way they changed the site is kinda jarring.

If anyone figures out how to change the background let me know, lol. It's waaay too dark.

rokun · « **Reply #2314 on:** August 31, 2013, 05:45:06 AM »

Ok, apparently he can't access the league. Would dai have to actually invite anyone new?

I guess he locked the teams unless we are over capacity

Damn, I probably will end up missing the draft due to the stupid weekend job I have (although if I get off at 6:30pm PST, I still may make it).

daigong · « **Reply #2317 on:** September 01, 2013, 02:54:58 AM »

awww too bad TeriyakiBoi

I know the feeling. I ain't Long Weekend but gotta make the $$$ you should get the app???

Lessee Rokun. Can he access via the ID 50955 and password? Weird man. Plently of time left. PM me his email, that should work!!

THUNDERDUCK · « **Reply #2318 on:** September 01, 2013, 03:07:04 PM »

Tebow is no longer a Pat....

daigong · « **Reply #2319 on:** September 02, 2013, 07:04:02 AM »

Tebow ggotta join the Edmonton Eskimos, we need a RB like no other.

HEY! great draft. fuck I wish I did my research

Who got the Snickers Sleeper pick? Bryce Brown and some other geeks on Atsuko Stryker's team lol What happens? They perform better? get more points?

I like Montreal's coach Tressman. watched some Bengals Bears and Even Trent Edwards looks good for the Bears, a new system but they firing at all cylniders. I like the Chiefs tho, Andy Reid is an offensive genius and Alex Smith is gonna be a sleeper.
