    So true, unfortunately.

    I remember when the Jets drafted his father, I naively thought he was going to be the next Jim Brown.

    Whenever they say no cause of death, sadly, my brain goes right to suicide or drugs. Hell, maybe it was an aneurysm.

    In his apartment and died of heat stroke? I believe it but was he out running earlier and came home because you'd think he has enough money to rent a place with ac.

    You finally get an answer to a mystery and it only leads to more mystery.

    Wasn't this an episode of Murder She Wrote? Wasn't it a venomous snake in the air duct?

    Reading about it it sounds like he trained in the heat. I also remember Walter Payton doing that.
