Is John Wooden Next In Line?

With the recent deaths of Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson. I've come to think that there's been a lot of death this year for famous figures. Here's the list so far; Chuck Daly, Ed McMahon, John Gordy, Johnny Kerr, and Larry H. Miller, have all died this year. Now death is something that happens everyday and we should accept that. But that doesn't mean that it's not horrible. I think John Wooden is next to leave us. I think this mostly because what has happened recently; last year he broke his left wrist and collarbone because he slipped, but he recovered. It's not the same breaking a bone when you're in your 20's than when you're in your late 90's. Earlier this year he went to the hospital for pneumonia and stayed there for 4 weeks. John Wooden is a legend but he's also a human who's in his late 90's and can be leaving us any day now.
