Dead Bodybuilders...From Tnation

[BG]

I understand what you're saying. Just to give this discussion a little perspective here are some statistics:

*There are 1,696 NFL players: 53 per team, 32 teams.
*There are approximately 16,000 NCAA football seniors per year.
*There have been 126 deaths in the NFL and NCAA related to drug use, injury sustained in game or practice or cardiac incident. The number increases significantly if you add in suicide, which some attribute to past head injury but I've left those out since that's impossible to prove outright.
*All 126 deaths are young men, most are under the age of 24. (More college players so there will be more young deaths in that category)

Now the only way to answer the next question, which has lead to more deaths, football or bodybuilding? That may be a very difficult question to answer. You'd need to know how many bodybuilders there have been, which again is probably near impossible to answer. However, although I may be wrong, I find it very difficult to believe that we could find 126 bodybuilders in the last 50 years that have died young.

You have to wonder how many of those football players used steroids.....probably most.
