Big Turk Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Always remember the game against the Browns in the playoffs we played against him, famously known as the Ronnie Harmon game... Sucks he is going thru it, hopefully things work out... https://www.yahoo.com/news/ex-browns-qb-bernie-kosar-140703429.html 2 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 (edited) That sucks. Maybe the liver issue is from self-medicating. Always liked Bernie. Edited July 9 by Beast 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there are other possible causes but cirrhosis of the liver is often caused by heavy drinking. As Bills fans know, players from that era liked to party. I liked him too. Hope he does the best he can. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweats Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Sad to hear, however, that dude had a huge, huge drinking problem. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is not drinking now I will give him a pass in my book. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royale with Cheese Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Hate it for him. A good QB and your name is Bernie...that's awesome. He's got to be the Browns best QB ever right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Day 10 Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Classic 80s player Those Browns teams were pretty decent. Webster Slaughter, Ozzie Newsome, Reggie Langhorne with Kosar throwing in old Cleveland Municipal. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyBatty is alive Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 (edited) After a while with concussions and seizures, you would think a rational person would call it quits way before he did. Reminds me of our current leader. As a football player, I found him boring that stayed with the game way too long (obviously), reminds me of so many mediocre QBs the Bills had during the drought on terrible teams. I hate to be cold but I cant imagine with Parkinson's he is no where near the top of the list for a liver transplant.

Charles Romes Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 He was good enough to have a 15 year career but that Cleveland team hit the wall hard. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 I believe to be even considered for a transplant you need to be able to show youve been sober for 6 months. So he must be off the booze for a while to be on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow. He was a top QB in the AFC for 4-5 years, 3 AFC Title games. One of the best deep throwers ever, very smart QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mediocre starting QB on mostly dismal teams. Edited July 9 by RoyBatty is alive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
