wow what a tragedy. my memory tells me some time back he had some problems with a woman and did some strange things related to that?

yeah, he drove off a cliff in Carlsbad in his SUV and lived. Think he had just gotten out of jail for domestic violence. about a year ago or so. Sad.

money and fame cant change your deepest inner feelings. thats why i feel sorry for these people that go of and kill a bunch of people. to do something like that your saddness would just have to be unbearable. sometimes things and situations push people to that point and if not for those things it may have never happened. like the guy who's trophy wife some 25 younger than him decides to divorce him, and her lawyer, his lawyer the judge and the system just kept draining him dry until he walked into the court and shot his lawyer her lawyer and the judge and for good measure went ahead and shot the bailiff. people can just be pushed to far sometimes.

Does anyone know if he had a history of concussions?

[Crazykid]

you know what, i think he did, something in my memory tells me he even spoke out about it.

One might think that for all these retired athletes, who realize they can't perform at the high level any longer, instead of sitting around bored, as a competitive outlet they might opt for the ownership game in horse racing. Some of these athletes, with the money they have, would not haveto settle for one horse, they could buy a whole stable.

That said, condolences to all.

Still, you've got a couple million in the bank, you live close to the beach and surf every day, got nice kids,,,, What a waste.
