Who is he? Current player? I'm not up on the GB squad this year.........
~SC~
Reggie White was my favourite player when I was younger...
R.I.P.... dam he's was good... :(
So young...
He retired from GB about 6yrs ago then went to Carolina Panthers for only 2 yrs I think. He retired around two-three years ago was GB all time sack leader.
Now they are saying respiratory failure??
Oh, WHITE.........I saw Write and had no clue.......

HE was a really great ball player and just as a good of a man. Got to meet him when I was younger at a youth christian football camp I got to go to. He will be missed by many.
tragedy. a great person, great football player and will be missed by many.
RIP Reggie White. In my world Reggie will forever be a Philadelphia Eagle.
how long will it take for them to somehow link it and blame it on steroids...?
Reggie went to the University of Tennessee at the sametime as my wife. All UT fans are broken hearted today. He was a class act!

He was one of the best, thats for sure, all american in college (right?) and did great in teh pros also. Yeah my father automatically blammed steroids, I just didnt say anything. I mean its possible, but I hate how everyone just automatically assumes
Peace
alex
def loss of a great man to say the least
rip to a great man, excellent football player and one of the few true honorable role models
It would be tough to die from Respitory failure as a result of AAS use that caused sleep apenia which then in turn led to his respitory failure and death. So far I have yet to hear a single speculation about AAS use and much of that is due to the way he died and the character he displayed as a person during his career and after. He was a stand up individual. There is a reason he was known as "The Minister of Defense"Quote:

RIP to Reggie
I heard only this morning I lived in Philly when he started his career. That was a good team. He was the best on and off the field. I have sleep apnea, hope that's not it.
I just wish he would have taken physicals and stress tests to look for heart disease. The thing is these NFL linemen force feed themselves like BBers that extra 25-50 lbs gives them an enormous advantage over thier opponents. Obviously gaining weight, not clean weight is the way they do it. Recipe for heart disease, sad.
He was a Hall of Famer on and off the field.
Why he did not catch CHF is beyond me. He has enough money to pay for doctor visits and the meds he needed
Rest in Peace... Reggie.

The initial thought was that he may have had CHF because of the way he died and the fact that sleep apneia is almost never fatal. After about half a day they dismissed the CHF idea as the cause of death and now presume he died from respitory failure.Quote:
