Football fans are praying for Bernie Kosar after the former Cleveland Browns quarterback announced a concerning health update in a video shared on X/Twitter.

On Wednesday morning, Bernie Kosar announced that he required “two aggressive procedures” after experiencing internal bleeding. Kosar was scheduled to undergo a liver transplant, but an infection has pushed the operation back.

The 61-year-old Kosar said he’ll undergo a third procedure and asked for support and prayers in a video message:

Football fans came together to pray for the Browns legend.

“Sending all the prayers today to our QB1 Bernie Kosar. He can use all of our love and support as he fights right now. All good vibes brother. 🙏,” wrote Chris McNeil.

“Hang in there Bernie! Much ❤️& 🙏🏼!” said a user.

“Prayers for you, Bernie, at one time the Steelers nemesis. Health more important right now. God bless!” another said.

“Keep fighting just as you did after Nebraska tied it up. Jim Kelly fought and won, you can too!” wrote a fan.

“Keep fighting Bernie! I got my prayer warriors in, too! Gonna add you to the church prayers list. I love you, Bernie, thank you for all your positivity, keep spreading that infectious attitude!!” said a fan.

“You matter Bernie! Always love for the Cleveland Browns legend.. Keep fighting brother, we know you got a few more drives in you!!” another commented.

In July 2024, Kosar announced that he had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and cirrhosis of the liver. Two months later, fellow former NFL star quarterback Brett Favre also announced that he had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s.

Kosar was the quarterback of the Browns during their best years in the Super Bowl era. He led them to three AFC Championship Games over a four-year period (1986, 1987 and 1989), but they fell to John Elway’s Denver Broncos each time.

The 1987 Pro Bowler is third on Cleveland’s career passing yards list (21,904) and fourth in passing touchdowns (116), per Pro Football Reference. Kosar also won a Super Bowl ring as Troy Aikman’s backup quarterback on the Dallas Cowboys in the 1993 season.

Kosar appeared in 108 games altogether and threw for 23,301 yards and 124 touchdowns. He had his best season in 1987, earning a Pro Bowl nod after throwing for 3,033 yards and 22 touchdowns.

All the best to Bernie Kosar.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
