[quote billhoward][quote RatushnyFan][quote billhoward]Too bad. At 19, the guy barely had a chance to try them out. Hope he's in for permanent remission.

Bad things happen to Boston athletes. More than other towns? Just a few:
Tony Conigliaro (beaning)
Len Bias (unfamiliarity with cocaine dosages)
Phil Kessel (cancer)[/quote]

Not sure if I'm interpeting your post correctly, but are you assuming that he lost both of them?  Seemingly there's no news out there indicating that.  I don't want to speculate on Phil's condition, just wishing him the best, but I thought that often testicular cancer patients lose a single testicle.[/quote]
So maybe he won't be having twins.[/quote]Well, maybe you only get one sperm per testicle, but don't speak ::banana::for the rest of us.....

No question that we're idling until hockey picks up again. I should probably go wrap presents or shovel the sidewalk. (Not snow. Terrier.)

Um, you do know that you don't necessarily need more than one sperm to have twins, right?
