Prayers up for Homer. He has occasionally posted here. Let's hope he's ok

I was there that night...Homer went off script to "pull a stunt" that ended up making the MACC Fund an additional $50,000. This is not hyperbole, he is one of the best human beings I have ever met; just the nicest guy around.

Big time prayers for Homer. One of the best.

Wishing the best for Homer. A staple in the small world of MU basketball. He actually posted here a few times last season.

Homer and I grew up in the same town. We traded a few emails last year about it. Seems like genuine guy.

Homer, get well soon. You've got a victory to call on Saturday.

prayers coming up from indianapolis.

Prayers and hoping he gets well soon. Love listening to Homer in radio bradcast.

Steve is a wonderful, righteous man. His broadcasting schtick isn't for everyone, but outside the broadcasting booth he is a man of great conviction. I pray that he will be OK.

Coleman · « **Reply #33 on:** November 13, 2013, 09:11:36 PM »

I always loved Homers positive attitude. He answers every call on his radio show saying he is "living the dream!" The dude is always as cheerful as could be and I never heard one negative rant on his show or an MU broadcast, even during a loss. Let's hope that spirit helps in his comeback.

Man .. Hampton and Fond du Lac .. I've driven through that intersection 100s of times.

I'm buying a tank.

Milwaukee's angle streets are a great convenience, but also make for some of the most dangerous intersections. Though I suppose drunk drivers can have that impact on any intersection. My thoughts are with Homer.

From 2-6pm each day he went to work and did what he needed to do to make a living. It was the other 20 hours a day where I have known him and as you say, a man of great conviction. He gave of himself and used his "celebrity" as much as he could for countless groups around Milwaukee. Just a really, really good guy. God I hope he pulls through. Too good of man, too young, too much left to do.

Man, does this suck to hear. Praying for the best, love listening to Homer on the call, think he represents MU with pride.

"I spoke with Homer's wife, Nancy, tonight," Karmazin said. "She said Homer is doing pretty well and that doctors want to monitor his condition overnight. On behalf of the True family and all of us at ESPN Wisconsin, I'd like to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers."

Awwww baby (gotta say it like Homer) this is reassuring news. Homer is an MU institution. This is hopefully good news that will lead to a full recovery. Love that man.

The boys will be playing with added inspiration on Saturday.

Glad to hear the encouraging report. Prayers to Homer and his family. Never met him, but feel like I have- feels like he brings his genuine self to his broadcasts.

WarhawkWarrior · « **Reply #40 on:** November 13, 2013, 10:08:56 PM »

Homer is as much a part of the team as anyone. Our cheering Saturday is for a Fast recovery. We need him back soon!

mu_hilltopper · « **Reply #41 on:** November 13, 2013, 10:10:22 PM »

Man, is that great news. "Homer is doing pretty well."

Gotta say, I've been thinking of this non-stop for the past few hours. So unfair, so maddening. 10am in the morning and wham, your life changes in an instant.

Goose · « **Reply #42 on:** November 13, 2013, 10:17:13 PM »

Topper

I am with you and cannot stop thinking about Home and his family. Glad to hear the positive news on the earlier post. I really wish that local news would have reported the positive news. TMJ4 had Homer as lead story at ten.

As Milwaukean, 2k miles away, he is a guy that brings me back to Milwaukee every time I hear his voice. Prayers for Steve.

brewcity77 · « **Reply #44 on:** November 13, 2013, 10:22:18 PM »

Good news to hear Homer is doing well. When it comes to major trauma, Froedtert does a wonderful job. Watching their trauma teams work, the efficiency, the knowledge, and the speed they operate with is really impressive. Considering the type of injuries he likely sustained, he's truly at one of the best places in the country.

The Process · « **Reply #45 on:** November 13, 2013, 10:52:29 PM »

Fox 6 had this as one of their big stories at 10 as well. Was very upset to hear about this earlier today - hopefully he'll be all right and back for MU games in the near future.

I'm not 2k miles away, even though it occasionally feels that way, but agree that when I turn on 540 on Tune In radio in my car it feels like I'm right back there. The commercials for Saz's and Major Goolsby's and it feels like I'm on the 10th floor of Schroeder listening to 1130 while studying during road games. All it ever needs is George Thompson.

Oldgym · « **Reply #47 on:** November 13, 2013, 11:14:26 PM »

Unreal. I listened to Homer and Mac on the way home last night after working late last night and thought, damn, Homer even makes a scrimmage against Grambling entertaining. And over the years, there's no voice more reassuring than Homer's, even when a game goes south on us. Best wishes for a fully recovery Homer. Need you back baby.

Can't be True, someone living the dream ain't driving around in a Toyota Corolla.

JK get well Homer.

Steve doesn't get caught up in the BS. Is your car paid off?
