Re: Did Football Kill Former Eagles DB Andre Waters?

This pathologist made an incredible lep of science.

He did not just say the injuries led to his death, he said:
"Brain damage caused on the football field ultimately led to the suicide of former NFL defensive back Andre Waters"
Since suicide is usually caused by a huge number of factors, nearly all pyschological. In fact I don't know of any neurological conditions that cause suicide".

You can be depressed over an illness, but it is the depression that causes the suicide, not the illness.

This guy sounds like he 'jumped the shark' on his conclusion.
