I know he didn't have the best of times with us but he's been diagnosed with CTE. Just the tip of the iceberg I expect and lots of former and current players will have the same, either diagnosed or not
The is the condition that has brought concussions to the fore in contact sports. For anyone who hasn't seen it, try and find a way to watch Concussion, a movie about how the NFL tried to cover up brain injuries and the resultant damage.

It was scary how the Dr who discovered and termed the illness was treat with such disdain as opposed to being celebrated for evidencing persistent brain-shake can have fatal consequences.
