Can someone delete this thread title? Horribly insensitive way of descibing a man with Parkinsons Disease.

Covered in another thread anyway.
Some men see things as they are and ask why. I dream things that never were and ask why not?

Knicks1248 - At least you have empathy with the body of your article, but get real with the title, really insensitive thing to say...

I was more than a little surprised when I saw the title of the thread, even though the OP's comment turned out to be fine.


A strange way to label a terrible disease and draw attention to the plight of one of the more personable players to play in the NBA in recent years.

I just don't see how you could read the article or watch the video and use a term like "the shakes" to describe Parkinson's.
