June 2, 2011: Ryan Leaf recently underwent a procedure
to remove a benign tumor near his brain stem. Because of the placement of the tumor, the doctors were unable to remove
the entire mass. It will be closely monitored and radiation treatment will be used if it expands. We wish
Mr. Leaf all the best on his recovery.

| This site actually helped inspire a movie. |
When this site went live
in late 2002, we asked, “Where have you gone Ryan Leaf?” because we really didn’t know where the hell he
was. Leaf had mysteriously retired the preceding summer and had seemingly disappeared.
Today, since we actually know where Leaf is, "Where have you gone Ryan Leaf?"
has a new meaning. 40 years ago, many wondered, "Where have you gone Joe DiMaggio?" while the Yankee Clipper was still visible
doing Mr. Coffee commercials. It wasn't the physical presence of DiMaggio they yearned for, it was a time of innocence that
had faded into history.
Generation X however, has no time for corny, cliché nostalgia, we "yearn" for irreverence,
sarcasm and irony. So, where have you gone Ryan Leaf?
