There’s an old saying in sports that it’s not always the best team that wins the championship, just the healthiest one.

Felice Dee Kurtzman, a long-time member of Bruin sports medicine staff and the UCLA Department of Biological Chemistry, died Saturday after a 14-month-long battle with cancer. She was 52.

I’ve heard just about enough about this Kobe Bryant guy.
