1404...Bryant Gumbel Has Lung Cancer

From People:

[Bryant Gumbel] The sportscaster and TV host, 61, said that he had surgery last month to remove a malignant tumor in his chest, a revelation prompted when Kelly Ripa asked Gumbel, subbing for Regis Philbin [on the syndicated morning show Regis and Kelly], to dance – and he begged off. According to Gumbel, part of his lung was removed, and he will be seeing his surgeon next week.

“We had told a few people, we told my family, obviously. I even kept it from my staff at [HBO's] Real Sports. So I’m okay for the time being. I’m hoping they greenlight me to play golf again.”


Prayers all around.
