<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>SOME information is better left unlearned. Yet I wouldn't be doing my job justice if I didn't report that Derrick Coleman, 41 come June 21, is in urgent need of a heart transplant. Details are scarce, but the few collected are scary.

Toward the end of Coleman's 10-year NBA career, he was diagnosed as suffering from arrhythmia. The disorder was treated with medication and it stopped his heart from skipping a beat and alleviated his shortness of breath, etc.

For whatever reason, Coleman's condition severely worsened lately, hospitalizing one of the toughest hombres in league history. Only a couple of his closest friends - Charles Oakley and Ricky Mahorn - have been able to see him.</div>

There's a tasteless joke in thread topic somewhere, but now is not the time to make it. Hopefully everything turns out well and he's able to recover.

Must have been an assumption based on the infamous "whoop de damn do" comment.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Coleman told ESPN's Stephen A. Smith that he was in the hospital for an irregular heartbeat and doesn't need a transplant, as was reported early on Friday.

"Do I sound like I need a heart transplant? I don't know how this stuff gets started. I appreciate the love, but please tell everybody that I am fine," Coleman told the Detroit News.</div>

That's good news. Now he can go back to demoralizing the contestants on Pro vs Joes.
