MOJO For Wade Phillips

[Fleet]

Sending prayers your way old man.

Good guy, always has a special place in my heart for his service to this team. He's moving his hands thank God.

My great-grandfather died shortly after falling down so this is possibly pretty serious. More than it looked. Heal up, Wade.

George Allen was coaching Long Beach State when he took a Gatorade shower after their final win. Ended up getting pneumonia and died shortly thereafter. Gotta be careful when you get older.

I for one believe that it could have very well led to his death, but his son does not believe that the Gatorade bath led to it.

And you are so correct about being careful when we get older. A fall / broken hip was the ultimate demise to my wife's grandmother recently. Doctor's did not say it was the cause, but it was all downhill fast from there. Falls on our elderly are so scary.

Good luck to you Wade, your one of us.


Per his son George Jr.

"In an interview this week, however, his son George Allen Jr., a former senator and governor of Virginia, said that was simply not true.

“He got a cold from it, but that was not the cause of his death,” the younger Allen said in a telephone interview. “He had a heart arrhythmia. It had nothing to do with the Gatorade shower.”

Get well, Wade!

[Mister Hoarse]

MOJO Wade!
Last I heard he was ok and about to be sent home.

[oneinchpunch]

Mojo.

I'm a huge Wade fan. Hopefully he's ok

[shogun]

I always thought he played a huge part in getting the Chargers winning again back in 2004, he'd get my vote for best D coordinator we ever had. Hope he recovers well

Cracked rib.

[Millionaire Wussy]

Cracked rib.

Those hurt. Or maybe it's the bruised rib.

The spare ribs hurt just as bad. Gotta chew your food.
