Tragedy for Rodney Rogers

I know this is not regarding the Cats, but he did play at Wake, and is living in NC. Just a real shame, especially around the Holidays. Good College player at Wake, pretty good Pro, earned a 6th man award. Now he has the fight of his life trying to learn at his young age to deal with paralysis. From such an athletic body to his body not moving from the neck down. He could really use our thoughts and prayers.

I always wanted him on the Hornets back in the day. He was a pretty unique talent, at least back then.

That really sucks, everything can change so easily after one wrong move.

I hope the best for him. He never ended up playing for either of my teams (did want the Bobcats to take him in the expansion draft though), but I always thought he was a good player/person.
