Very sad. Cardiac arrest at 43.

Yes. Probably some details missing.

I’m sure it has nothing to do with our government’s health care policy. 43 year old former professional athletes’ hearts stop beating all the time. Just ask the life insurance companies how things are going.

I can't be sure or anything but my money is on drug paraphernalia being found with his body.

Or maybe his history of drug abuse had something to do with it.

As I said, maybe he didn’t get the proper health care treatment due to public policy.

Coulda been cocaine or heroin.

Coulda been a vaccine reaction.

Coulda been alcohol abuse.

Coulda been steroids when an athlete.

Coulda been bad genetics/family history.

Coulda been depression or some mental problem.

Coulda been downright 💩y luck.

All I know is some poor guy died far too young.
