Extending prayer for his family and teammates.

Wonder what the cause of death was?

Things like that are so scary. How we can just be gone in an instant with no warning. What if the person you loved or a best friend just fell down and never got back up. That would be incredibly devastating and frustrating.

A Professional football player...at age 23.

It is definitely a sad thing, my condolences to his family and teammates.....but I'm really wondering what could have possibly happened

Damn, that is pretty sad...I think that the game has gotten too big...Alot of these guys are really big health risks, and so many stories have been written about them being in that condition...I think they should really do something drastic to measure body temperature, it shouldn't be that hard man...You almost know it's something heat related...

I agree, you never want to see this happen to anyone, especially someone with their whole life ahead of them. Maybe a heart condition or something.

This is so sad. They are forced to beef up and put on weight to do their job then put through training that hard for their body to deal with. It's a very very sad thing...
"If there were no eternal consciousness in a man, if at the bottom of everything there were only a wild ferment, a power that twisting in dark passions produced everything great or inconsequential; if an unfathomable insatiable emptiness lay hid beneath everything, what would life be but despair?"
