Sobering stuff. I've been following this awhile. I saw another video featuring similar problems with other players of the same era. The Cowboy's Tony Dorset found himself at the local shopping mall with no clue as to why he was there or how he got here.

I hate to be spoilsport on Super Bowl Sunday but the fact is, the NFL isn't too many steps below what the gladiator sports in the Roman Colosseum was in terms of human cost.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
