The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

Any idea what happened? A kid I played soccer with in college dropped dead from some crazy heart shit while he was sitting at his computer.
maybe the concussion did something...i hope its not drugs or foul play
He had a concussion recently? I would imagine they could catch any bleeding on a CT scan. I hear you on the drugs thing but could easily be some rare heart disorder thing. Sad stuff.
i just seen a documentary about concussions and sports. It turns out they know that any hard hit, not necessarily concussion, adds up over time damages in the brain. They studied Trinity High School football team, where a 16 year old committed suicide and who was a player on the team. Very eye opening. Worth the watch as they also document NFL players too.

The ONLY thing better than a glass of beer is tea with Miss McGill

And I agree, it's very sad. All too young over sport. :(
Condolences to family, friends and fans.
