Silvy was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. He's talking about it now.

He wants to hear about other people's experiences and wants everyone's support but doesn't want people to say "Sorry..." when they find out he has it, because he wants to kick its ass.

Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is cancer that originates in your lymphatic system, the disease-fighting network spread throughout your body. In non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, tumors develop from lymphocytes — a type of white blood cell. Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is more common than the other general type of lymphoma — Hodgkin lymphoma.

I think he’s mentioned having had several endoscopies looking for some throat issues last couple years . I’m guessing whatever throat issues he was having had something to do with this .

Best sports talker in the history of Chicago sports radio.

He'll beat it.

Yeah this was hard to hear. I'm a big Silvy fan, he will beat this.
Been my favorite sports talk show in Chicago for several years now. Looking forward to many more.

Silvy will be fine. It's not like he just caught the Rona.

He will starve to death before either thing gets to him.

It's plausible.

Do we have a number on the amount of current starvation victims yet?

Not my favorite talker, but no issue with him. I go back to the the beating he used to take from Bill Simonson when The HUGE show was on 1000....Simonson was such a prick to him and Silvy always acted like a pro.

Sad to hear this and hope he kicks it's ass.

He's got a ways to go to be ahead of Mac or Chet. He's probably the best interviewer we've heard.

This was terribly sad to read. Not that there is ever a good time to be diagnosed with cancer, but goddam what a fucking terrible time to be diagnosed with cancer.

Simonson took a beating or two himself

Silvy is a great guy. I feel bad for him having a partner who is so inert and uninteresting. I'd listen more if he were partnered with someone--anyone--else. Kick its ass, Silvy.

One of the few I ever liked on MVP. I feel like if he were unleashed from the corporate muzzle he would be great.

Silvy said earlier this week that he only has one more chemo treatment left. Hopefully he will be done with it for good after that. I don't think he took too much time off of work during his treatment, either. :salut:

He switched from booze to edibles during the process.

W & S had 2 of their funniest bits I've heard from them.

They played an old Waddle United Way psa. The director kept telling Waddle to speak slower & more softly. The finished psa was pretty hilarious.

Then Jesse Rogers was on. I noticed he and B Levine are big on breaking stories. Rogers behind the scenes wanted an extra segment for the big news that the Cubs pa announcer was leaving, possible with celebrities filling in temporarily. The guys then debated if it was big news.

Then a producer told the story where Mac destroyed him for letting B Levine break in Mac, J & H with breaking news that the Cubs were leaving Kerry Woods locker open to honor him after he left.
