He's one of the last of the old school local sports guys, and I always enjoy reading his posts, especially when he comes down to the level of most of us jackwagons and tells us how the cow ate the cabbage.

Get better Mike.  Hogville needs you.

Jack Rabbit, you sum this up perfectly. Mike, please feel better soon - we really do need you  :razorback:

If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

Diverticulitis can be a real pain in the butt.... :P  Miss ya' Mike....get on top of this and get back in the fray.  You bring something to NWA sports that's sorely needed.  And missed.

I had to read up on what this is and I agree with Mike it isn't for sissies. Of course he now knows first hand.

Get well Mike.

There's very few things that'll shut Mike up... and even then, he'll speak up sooner or later.

This is one of those times.

Rest up and get well, Mike!

Praying for a speedy recovery Mike. Always a great contributor here—and in the newsroom—and a stabilizing force during times of chaos in Arkansas sports. (And there has been far too much of that in the last 10 years.)

Any news?

AP on Roundtable said Mike was home and they hoped he back on the Roundtable this Sunday.

That's cold blooded right there, I ate some last night and today I'm suffering the consequences. I don't wish this on anybody, hate to hear Mike has it.

It takes a while to learn what you can eat and what you can't, and it affects some people differently than others. I was diagnosed several years ago and have learned to live with it, but it's no fun at all. If you are going to travel, you have to get ready 2 or 3 days in advance. Basically eat small amounts of really safe foods, and make sure you have some Imodioum AD handy.

Then you can count being sick for a day two after your trip.

Payers for you Mike, hang in there, it may not be as bad as they make it sound at first.

Get well soon Mike! Were actually neighbors . I don't always agree with your poitics but you have an undeniable passion for what you believe & that proverbial chip on thy shoulder that make for a great journalist.  :)

I am out of the hospital and slowly recovering from a medical condition that ran over me like a freight train. I always thought of myself as a tough guy. Actually I'm a wimp. There's nothing like waking up in ICU with tubes down both nostrils, your wrists tied to the bed frame and tubes poking out from your abdomen to make you realize that you are in control of nothing.

Thanks for the support. I'm not sure when I will be back at work. That is up to my doctor.

welcome back to the board Mike good to see your getting better .

Thank God it wasn't anything serious!   ;)

Happy to see you are feeling well enough to post.
Here's hoping for a speedy and lasting recovery.
