What I am calling BS on is how he was implying that somehow Football aside from the armed services which he mentioned, causes this tragic behavior and playing pro football "kills the players".
Trauma and depression? Talk to someone who has a family and lost his job. Talk to a Police Office or Fire Fighter. Talk to someone who works in a hostile environment that has them stressed out to the max all the time.
There are occupational hazards to anything peolpe do. True football is very physical but other things such as stress take a physical and mental toll on people as well.
Wright was calling it "the cause". I can think of a lot worse situations than someone being depressed because they don't play pro sports anymore.
