Mike Ditka Has 'Minor Stroke'

(Newser) – Mike Ditka suffered a "very minor stroke" yesterday and ended up in the hospital, he tells the Chicago Tribune. "I feel good right now and it's not a big deal," says the 73-year-old. Still, he won't be working for ESPN this NFL weekend, according to a tweet from a network producer confirming the news. The former Bears coach says he was playing cards with friends when he realized his hands and his speech weren't quite right. Ditka had a heart attack in the midst of the 1988 season, notes the AP, though he quickly recovered.
