    Alex Trebek gets a death sentence

    Jeopardy host Alex Trebek has been diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. The 78-year-old broke the news in a video message Wednesday.
    "I have some news to share with all of you, and it's in keeping with my longtime policy of being open and transparent with our Jeopardy fan base," Trebek says. "I also wanted to prevent you from reading or hearing some overblown or inaccurate reports regarding my health. So therefore, I wanted to be the one to pass along this information. Now, just like 50,000 other people in the United States each year, this week I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer."

    Never really watched too much Jeopardy, but this guy is an icon.
    My big ??? for him would be:
    "Alex, do you think you might have walked away a tad bit earlier if you knew what you know now??"

    Alex Trebek has stage 4 cancer

    Stage 4 pancreatic cancer.

    Damn...


    I’m going to keep working,” Trebek said. “And with the love and support of my family and friends and with the help of your prayers, I plan to beat the low-survival statistics of this disease.”

    Alex Trebek and this stage 4 cancer.... unreal.

    Guy is the last person I'd think of... to die of cancer.

    Clearly shows you can't win in this damn life.

    I'll take "Life Sucks" for $800, Alex

    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

    You deadbeat loser. No one cares about any other nonsense you said you did or about anyone else. You gave nothing to charity or anyone else. You supposedly helped out a new person/people out every time I call your dumb, broke dik ass out. A decent liar would at least stick to the same story but you're too stupid to even do that. What a surprise when you can't even remember what day it is.

    Pay up like you said you would or don't post here anymore.
