Are you effin kidding me?

Thanks to ESPN for the article

A devout Michigan State football fan called timeout before doctors could install a pacemaker in his chest Thursday, deferring the procedure until after the school's football game this weekend against rival Michigan.

Major Hester said he's willing to risk death so that he can watch Saturday's game in Ann Arbor on television. The Spartans are ranked 17th in the country and the Wolverines are ranked 18th.

The 69-year-old retired office supply clerk said he put off the procedure until next week because he can't risk something going wrong on the operating table that would prevent him from watching the game.

"You never know," Hester told The Detroit News as he paced back and forth in his living room. "It's like going into combat. You may come home alive or you may come home dead."

Hester suffers from cardiomyopathy, a condition where the heart muscle is weakened. He said he's aware of the risk he's taking but is willing to take the chance.

"Whatever happens, I want to see the game," he said.

His friends took Hester's decision in stride.

They say Hester gives himself pep talks to try to "keep it calm" during games, turns down the television volume to keep from getting too excited, and smacks the coffee table, screams at coaches and curses out the referees from his couch. He's even been banished to his bedroom like a scolded child and forced to watch games alone.

"I want to run the ball with them," said Hester. "I want to catch the pass."



At first I was thinking no big deal, just another Michigan State heart attack article. Then I got to reading about our boy over here. First of all you know this dude is the real deal with a name like Major. I'm thinking holy shit this guy and I have so much shit in common it's crazy...we both give ourselves pep talks during games and curse mother fuckers out and shit like that. Obviously I'm a littler cooler than he is, because he's got fucking cardiomyopathy which sounds like some sorta fucked up shit. I'm all ready to give this guy his props for risking his life and shit to watch his team, but then I re-read the article. First sentence, second paragraph. "Willing to risk death so he can watch the game on TV?" Are you effin kidding me? What a fucking pussy ass bitch. Does this dude not know that the trio just fucking braved getting a cold in like 48 degree weather in Buffalo in only 2 sweatshirts and 2 pairs of socks? I had to take like six airborne that my mom packed for me before the game just to keep from catching a cold. This fucking guy is full of excuses...and shit, c'mon dude if you're a Michigan State fan you're in East Lansing...the trip to Ann Arbor is probably like 12 minutes. Here's to hoping you don't die this weekend Major, but don't think you're hot shit or anything either.
