A player on the 49rs died after the game last night. His name was Thomas Herrion I belive. Only 23. Wonder what he was taking? Game time temps were in the 50's.

Because you don't necessarily need to be taking something to die after great physical exertion. Also, the story should be about the man's life and death, not what he was taking to cause his death. Not exactly classy.

The odds are he was taking some type of supplement that may have been connected to his death. If I am wrong, I will apoligize, but I am sure something will come up. |

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the OP isn't a professional journalist, and his post was not a news story. This is a "media civilian" who's wondering on his own whether a substance contributed to the death of a young, professional athlete. There's nothing wrong with his wondering...and if he's wrong, so be it. If he'd been speculating as a reporter in the SF Chronicle, that'd be irresponsible. On this message board, it's not a big deal. Lighten the hell up. |

He made an assumption, and I thought it wasn't appropriate. I'm not making it a big deal, I'm just pointing out why somebody else might have called him an idiot. My bad. |

Maybe it was just a 310 pound man running around with a heat index of 110 collapsing from the heat.

[/ QUOTE ] That was my first thought too, but the game was played in Denver and the game-time temp. was 60. CNN reported that he came into camp weighing 340 lbs and was told to lose weight. Losing 30 lbs in less than 6 weeks can't be good for you. |
