Though this guy has been not shy at all about badmouthing the president and disparaging the country as a social justice warrior, I'm going to take the high road and say I feel bad that he lost his wife this way. I wouldn't want long-term illness on anyone and their loved ones.

Perhaps this is why.

Why Popovich has been such a complete and utter liberal tool since Trump was elected.

The terminal illness of his dear wife must have affected his rational thinking.

That’s the only explanation I can think of. Pop was an officer in the Air Force. They don’t usually trash talk Americans like he does.

In any event, as a native San Antonian who LOVED the Spurs, I do not follow them any more. Because of Pop.

Having said all this - my condolences to The Popovich family.

Sorry about this man’s personal loss, I’m sure it’s very hard to lose a spouse after a long illness.

Having said that, politically, he is an absolutely disgusting and arrogant leftist Trump-hater (which means he hates me also because I’m a Trump supporter). He is my political ENEMY.

Sorry for his loss...but I hope he can empathize when people lose their loved ones to illegal invaders and stop badmouthing people who want these crimes stopped/prevented.

at the age of 67 after a long battle with illness.

The headline blares "Cause of Death" and the story gives us no cause of death. I think the writer inserted "illness" as a placeholder until he/she could get an explanation and was told "respect their privacy, you little maggot reporter" and forgot to re-write the headline and lead paragraph.

Exceptionally shoddy journalism.

Now, notice Maggot Reporter doesn't attempt to get any quotes from the Spurs themselves. Just tearful condolences from LeBron James and Kevin Durant who were probably asked in post-game questioning by tv reporters and recirculated.

For his accomplishments, I have enormous respect for Popovich as a basketball coach. I have zero respect for Popovich as a social or political commentator.

All that said, I am an age when I am seeing friends and relatives and their spouses passing away because it's simply the age range people start dying. My sympathies are with Coach Popovich, his family, his teammates and the Spurs organization.

I'm curious why anyone in the news passes away and wish it would be publicly stated, even suicides. To tease us with the headline "Cause of Death" and then to tell us she died of "illness" is greatly unsatisfying.

I guess we now know why this guy is always in a bad mood.

Even when the Spurs were winning championships, this guy was always surly.
