NFL player suicides seem to be on a rise.
Very uncanny.
Could,the article says, tramatic brain injury be a reason why?

Interesting theory. I wonder along with the TBI theory, they'll delve into a PTSD-type theory as well. Football is not mortal combat, but at the NFL-level, it is extremely violent and prolonged exposure could produce similiar symptoms, I suppose. Who knows how the human mind will react?

It's a bad situation all around, <sigh>.

Yeah, Slo-Mo you probably remember how in the NHL they've had those suicides and other untimely deaths in recent years, which were linked to the players having been more of the enforcer type and therefore having received quite a few blows to their heads during their careers.

Although, I doubt that has anything to do with this case, as it seems that it was more of a jealousy inspired argument gone horribly wrong kind of thing, which led to the player taking his own life afterwards.
