The problem with diabetes is a hormonal one, more specifically with the hormone insulin. In diabetes type I, your pancreas is not making insulin, the hormone that acts like a key for glucose to get into your bodies cells. Without glucose your bodies cells have no energy. So how do people with type I diabetes make do? They inject themselves with insulin. This is an on-going medical problem that Morrison had from an early age and will always have to be monitored, but, to my knowledge, should not be debilitating in any way. I mean, has diabetes hindered Morrisons game to this point? If his pancreas isn't making any insulin now, could it really get worse? Maybe there's an expert in the field that can contradict what I'm saying, but I highly doubt it. The truth is the media's talk about health concerns towards Morrison just makes me cringe, cause anyone in the know should be able to hop onto webMD and look it up themselves.

Complain all you want about his lack of defense, but can we put Morrison's health condition to rest?
