Allen revealed two weeks ago that he was battling non-Hodgkins lymphoma, although he released a statement that sounded optimistic and said he would fight the disease aggressively.

TheUsualSuspect 207 Posted October 15, 2018 Is this the part where we are suppose to be all sad, and send condolences to his family and friends. A prayers emoji perhaps? No fantasy relevance. Is Pierre Garçon going to have over 36.5 yards receiving tonight or not? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bills04 45 Posted October 16, 2018 Allen never married, and has no children. So: fair question to ask, who will run the Seahawks?! My guess is whoever the Trustee is will make Bill Gates the short-term Principal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quickolas1 80 Posted October 16, 2018 I hope he left the team "to the people of Seattle" just to piss off the other owners and to see them squirm. (Of course they would make sure it didn't happen.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RoadLizard 73 Posted October 16, 2018 Just shows you that cancer knows NO financial boundaries. If you get the wrong kind....its going to kill you. Rich or poor. At least the guy got to live with tons of cash most of his life. Id take dying at 65 to be a billionaire from like age 20 and beyond. Sign me up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
