    Very sorry to hear this. Parkinson's is an awful, relentless disease. Prayers and best wishes to Krag and his family.

    Wow. Parkinson's sucks -- my grandfather had it, and now my mom. Can really be debilitating.

    My prayers and thoughts to Krag...

    WOW Cajun that is so sad to hear. My mother is in the very late stages of Lou Gherig's disease which has many similarities and and one of my closest friends father has Parkinsons. These are such gut wrenching diseases for EVERYONE close to the disease. This is heartbreaking to hear. Good luck to coach K and his family. At least He and his family are in a place where they will have great support. I expect a massive outpouring of support from the Tiger family.

    Hopefully with the diagnosis he can receive the appropriate treatment and at least improve his living. Obviously, the coaching situation takes a backseat to Coach Kragthorpe's health right now.
