This just isn't fair. Dave was nothing but a sweetheart of a guy.

I'm truly devastated.

Damn this sucks. Loved Dave.

This is Dave's son, Nick or LittleMeatballNick. I am posting on my dad's behalf since he can no longer post. He was diagnosed with brain cancer in August of 2014. For almost 2 years, he has been fighting and last week, he could no longer fight and is now in hospice care. If you would like to help, I am raising money for his cremation and any bills he may have leftover. www.gofundme.com/2v6zxfck
Thank you everybody.

I posted a thread.

Donation made, Nick. Only wish I could do more. Prayers buddy.

Thank you. And any little bit helps.

Cool. The mods can either merge them or just go ahead and nuke this one (I don't think I can delete it on my own)

Well, that ****ing sucks, Nick. I'm very sad to hear this. My prayers to your dad, you, and the family.

Damn it.

I kicked in a few bucks. Just please keep us posted and let him know we're thinking of him.

I'm very sorry to hear this. I thought he had more time. Good luck to him and the family. Donation made.

This saddens me immensely. Always enjoyed his posts.

Thanks for the info, Nick. The Planet is a little sadder tonight.....:(

Damn...

Condolences to you and your family.

This is terrible. Very nice guy.

Sorry to hear that buddy, I always liked your Dad. All my best to you and the rest of your family, donation made. RIP.

One of my favorite posters!

Best wishes to you and your family.

Damn. Sorry to hear.

Sorry to hear. He was a pretty good guy on here.

Prayers and well wishes for you and your family.

I donated but it wasn't enough to cover all of the great conversations that Dave and I had over the years.

Dave was acutely aware of my wife's cancer situation and continually checked in via PM, as I did with him throughout his ordeal and trials. He was an amazing guy and the world is a lessor place without him.

Godspeed, Dave.

:(

Totally sucks. My girlfriend of many years mom just died 45 minutes ago in hospice. Cancer ****ing sucks.

My condolences, Dave.

Godspeed.

Nick, I am so sorry. I really liked your father a lot.

I am deeply saddened to hear this. I too have been off work since NYE when I had a brain aneurysm and collapsed. I've sice been trying to put my life back in order. RIP Dave. Heaven is getting a good apple.

Sorry to hear it. Shit's getting out of hand. There's way too much of this going around.

Have him say hi to Mad Max for me.


:( Prayers for Chiefs Planet and LittleMeatballNick

Sorry to hear that, Nick. I enjoyed interacting with your Pops here at the Planet. My condolences to you and your family. Someone (I believe Scott Free) mentioned that it would be nice if you stuck around here in his honor, I think that's a solid idea.

I will donate when I get to my truck. My card is in there.

mother of ****
I hate cancer
I liked the Big meat ball

I'm pretty upset right now. While I was away from CP he sent me a message asking how I was doing. **** man I wish we would have had more time to talk.

Nick, I'm so sorry to hear about your fathers condition. He's a great man.

Great dude. Prayers for BMD and his family.

To pass so young is truly a tragedy. I am so sorry for your family's loss.

My mom died at 57, my dad at 60, both grandfathers, one grandmother, two of three aunts, two uncles and a cousin all of cancer. it is a miserable death.

My prayers to everyone.....o:-)

God damn. As soon as I saw the sticky, I knew it wasn't good.

RIP.

On that note....has anyone heard from Sacc?

I was wondering about Sacc tonight too. Last activity was on 3/19. :(

I sent him a PM about 3 weeks ago, no reply. No activity since 3/30/2016

Sorry to hear about your dad Nick. I didn't know him well here, but I can imagine what he, as well as you and your family are going through. I lost my mother to cancer and it is an terrible thing to watch. God bless him. And you hang in there.

He was one of the biggest shit talkers on the Planet. I loved him for it. This is ****ing horrible. Nick, please tell your old man that I think he's a great guy. It'd mean a lot too me.

Dammit, Tattoo. Mike was one of my best friends on Earth. I still try and do right by his youngest boy as I promised that I would. Mike Hall was one of the greatest men I ever met. He never had much, but he had heart in spades, and would never do anything to hurt a soul. Rest in paradise my friend. You are missed so much more than you know...

It warms my heart that there have been so many been willing to donate in such a short period of time. We might be one giant group of assholes and misfits... but we look after our own. And that makes me quite happy.

At least the guy got to see the Royals win one more World Series.

This is tough. These Planeteer deaths always hit me pretty hard for being people on the internet.

Dave was a great one. Insanely nice guy.

That's awful. Brain tumors are awful and I wouldn't wish them on anyone.

I do regret not reading around a little more to of seen this before hand, and not been a bit of a dick when bantering back and forth with him.

I did the same thing and I knew. I just didn't know the extent. I assumed he'd come out just fine, and now I'm sitting here hoping the guy knew it was all in good fun anyways. It kind of sucks.

This stuff is always sad to hear about... Nick, our thoughts and prayers are with your family. Your dad will be missed around here, cherish all the memories and set an example that would make him proud.

Damn it. Just damn.

Your pops was one of the good ones Nick.

The list of former Planeteers is getting long. :(

I'll pitch in some in the morning. It will be criminally small compared to the Man, but I hope it helps.


EDIT: Done. Hope you can meet your goal.

Sorry to hear about your dad..I enjoyed his posts..good thoughts to you and your family

Nick, my prayers go out to your dad and your family. I didn't interact with him much on CP, but when I did he always seemed like a good man.

I sent him a PM about a month ago apologizing for some truly awful things I said to him in a thread and received no response. I hope he is OK.

For him to not be around during the draft to pimp all of the players from Utah, there must be something wrong.

So sorry to hear this news. Always liked BMD. Prayers and positivity coming your way. Hope you and your family are able to get the funds you need. Bless up Nick!!

This place has been a great refuge over the years. I owe people like him a great deal. Might not post a lot, but you still get to know people from afar.

Seemed like a great guy. God bless him and your family.

Terrible news, my prayers to you and your family. God speed Dave

One of the most beloved on CP. Prayers to your entire family. God will take care of the eternity of life.

He truly was one of the nicer people here. I was hoping things had turned around for him. God bless you BMD!

Nick, please let him know that we all wish him well and he was a credit to this place. He's a good guy that we will all miss.

Dang. Much respect for Dave.

I am saddened to see this in ways I hope none of the rest of you ever will be, those who have not had cancer. Dave was a big supporter in my fight against cancer, and we pm'ed quite a bit. I truly wished he'd be around after I was gone and many years more. I pray he does not suffer and passes peacefully.

No one who passes from cancer deserves to go out like that. I continue to pray for Dave and his family. This one truly sucks. And hurts.

Gawdmanit!!!

Dave is a great guy. This just completely sucks. God bless him and his Family. He will be DEEPLY missed by his Family here at CP.

**** Cancer! I'm so sick of this ****ing wretched disease.

Nick,

I'll add that everyone I've met from this site in real life has been top notch. There is a fair number of trolls around and some shit slinging, but anyone that puts themselves out there from this site has been top notch in my experience.

It may seem like a weird deal, but it really is a community here. People come for the football and stay for the people.

BMD was always a gentleman. He was never afraid to tell you what he thought, but he was always tactful about it regardless if he was agreeing or disagreeing with you. He shared a lot on here about his life. I believe it was an anonymous way to let things out, but I also believe he had hopes that someone would read something that helped them in their own life. He will truly be missed.

Sorry to hear about your dad, Nick. I hope the ChiefsPlanet well wishes bring you and Dave some comfort.

Done

BMD will be missed. I hope his last days are pain free and surrounded by family. Positive thoughts heading to his family,

Very sorry to hear this. Best wishes, Nick. Your dad will be missed around here.

This is heartbreaking. Always enjoyed discussing Chiefs with him. Was just unbelievably nice. Sorry to hear the news.

Last I heard he was drowning in mormon poon.

All of this is totally true. And yes Dave was one of the really good ones. Cancer is a horrid way to go at any age, but 45 damn that's way way to young. I'll throw in a few bucks when I can get back to KC and some actual bandwidth.

I really hope Dave can understand the love we have for him and really almost everyone on the site. Life is far too short.

.....Started to read & kept saying NO. Wow.

.....You gotta live like everyday..... Of course I was doing just this when the sand dunes about did me in.

.....You never know.
