Scott Hamilton Undergoes Brain Surgery for Benign Tumor
By Ryan Wilson - AOL NewsAmerican figure skater and Olympic gold medalist Scott Hamilton underwent brain surgery Wednesday to remove a recurrence of a benign brain tumor near his pituitary gland that first appeared six years ago.

What I watched over the next few minutes had my testosterone seeping out of my body in search of a chili dog and the nearest monster truck rally.
