    True. I always think of Patrick Swayze when I hear a celebrity with pancreatic cancer...

    Swayze admitted that he believed smoking caused the pancreatic cancer.... of course... doesn't seem like Trebek was a smoker.

    We have to get rid of any non pros and/or air bettors and/or ghosts feeling they have any room to talk crap.

    Put up, or shut up.

    Guys stop trying to hijack the thread with non pro babble. No one cares what you have to say.

    He looks great for 78 and stage 4 pancreatic cancer. Everyone I've known personally to have it went down quickly and died.

    I liked you better when you were a non pro.

    bothering someone who chooses not to give
    to a charity you fancy is ridiculous.

    Did you really need to hijack this thread with
    your self serving nonsense.

    Also.. and I believe you already know this but
    RIP is best used AFTER the person dies not while
    they are still living.

    You can't expect much from him, he's a dispatch for truck drivers. A job that's usually performed by a woman.

    I'm guessing at this point he's going to try to maintain a "normal" life as much as possible until he can't do it anymore. Jeopardy only gets filmed a few days a month, so it's not that much of a grind. They finish taping for the season either this month or next from what I've read (which may be his last).

    I have to wonder out loud though if he's still going to try and do those Colonial Penn life insurance commercials (or if they'll stop airing them since it might be too morbid).

    Cancer is an absolute bitch. Stage 4 Pancreatic, best you could hope for even with all the money in the world and best possible treatment is maybe to stave it off a couple years. More likely it will get him before that. Again, cancer is a bitch
    Well if you have millions to piss away and don't mind traveling to Europe there are risky bone marrow stem cell transplant procedures that have been proven to cure AIDS in patients and now cancer..

    You can die with just having the operations though if you are already in a weaken state though.. Expensive and dangerous but worth the try if you are going to die anyways in a short time.. It is now proven to cure AIDS though..

    You're probably right. I like that fact he's trying to over power it mentally though. He could pack it in right now... but he didn't.

    Why is race and religion always the talking point in society today?

    I ment to start this as it's own thread but was already in this one by mistake.. Ooops ..

    Why does everyone hate and or love blindly on race or religion and even gender before judging a person first?

    What ever happen to judging a person first on whether they are cool or a dicck?

    I really don't get it??? I see it in the media all the time and in politics these days and it prays on division and hate in the end for all fellow man kind. It's just divides..

    Can't prejudge like that, every person is different regardless of their color of skin or religious beliefs and or gender..

    Rant over!!!

    Already had the heart, lungs, liver, testicals checked.

    Scary shit.

    Haven’t gotten the ass check yet.

    Fuk

    I did not know much about this, but after reading through this thread, 6 months seems to be the deadline for this horrible shit.

    Not cool.

    Not cool at all.

    One of the fears I have... you're getting checked out... and the fukking quack doctor says you have cancer... but it was a misread... that would be my luck.

    It's really hard to find a good doctor these days.... it seems like every bastard out there intentionally does other tests... (for extra money) leading up to the MAIN TEST (which he should of already done in the first place.) It's like they want you to suffer.... they want to find something wrong with you.

    My grandfather told me one day.... never trust dentists, doctors, and lawyers. lol He was right.

    It’s sucks there isnt a simpler way to find out if cancer is in your body. I loathe going to the doctor. Cancer takes its course inside of you to stage 4 and most people are clueless. This disease is literally the most exhausting aspect of human life. At 41, there has not been a month, maybe even a week that has gone by in the last 5 years, where I haven’t been personally effected in some way, shape or form by by someone who’s beat it, died from it, or has it... and its not even distant persons... close family and friends. From melanoma to lung to leukemia... it’s a truly depressing disease.

    praying for Trebek. I’ve watched at least 500 episodes of jeopardy in my lifetime. Hope he pulls off a miracle.

    actually it can be beat just not likely. The reason its tough is because there arent usually early sypmtoms like most cancers and when they do show its usually too late
