[SpecialBlend2786]

I think i'm going to wear my #92 jersey untill New Years

[Ghetto]

Funny how no one has brought up steroids with him. Just becuase he was a minister no one even suspects it. Even though dying of a heart attack at age 43 any other player would have been questioned.

The word around detroit radio is "sleepapnia" related.


he was close to the Coach up here and last time he was in the area he was teaching Shawn Rogers "the Club"...I was told that one of the things reggie White wanted to see was more of the young players being taught "how" to play the game by the vets.


If his Death is in anyway related to a snoring problem I am going to look into that proceedure to end snoring cause I rumble the timbers.

[logamus]

wow, never would have guessed a heart attack would get him.

[penguinpunk555]

Heard about it yesterday. I was just shocked. Still kinda hard to belive.

[SpecialBlend2786]

I heard it was some respatory thing.

sleep apnia is basically when you stop breathing in your sleep, i believe

what in the world are your talking about. Unless im mistaking "Minister of Defense" was his nick name ESPN is saying that it has to do with his lungs but they will only know for sure in about 3 months.

[Gijim]

Wow it was only a few years ago he was the dominate player at his position. He was a great player and a great role model, unusual in this day and age. By the way the initial report states he died of lack of oxygen in his sleep. He changed the Green Bay Packers from losers to Super Bowl winners, man I wish he played for my Broncos Prayers go to the family!!!

Talking about

The first reports came out heart attack. It was switched now to sleep apneai(spelling?") Usually the first thing people jump on when a football player has a heart attack at a young age is steroid use. I know he was a minister. What does that have to do with anything. He still inflicted pain on people every sunday. Well that is what most ministers do but he did it physically instead of verbally.

[Kevmaster]

terrible...just terrible

[Crime Dog]

"what in the world are your talking about. Unless im mistaking "Minister of Defense" was his nick name "

Reggie White was an ordained Christian Minister. His testimony was loud and clear...great guy. This news came as a shock to me when I heard it yesterday... I'm praying for comfort and peace for his family.

Nevermind

My whole point is usually the media throws up accusations of steriods whenever a football player dies early. These guys are in usually perfect condition and when they go from a Heart Attack it is a shock and the media jumps on it. I know he was a minister I have seen him play and loved watching him when he was in Green Bay.
