CFL Legend Diagnosed with Cancer

Former Canadian Football League player and coach Ron Lancaster is again fighting cancer. The Hamilton Tiger-Cats confirmed that Lancaster, 69, is undergoing treatment for lung cancer only five years after he was successfully treated for bladder cancer.

"As much as I love the game of football, there are some things more important than what happens on the field of play," Lancaster said in a statement. "Five years ago, I survived a battle with cancer, and now we have another battle on our hands."
