Junior Seau was also unavailable, but that’s because he killed himself after bankrupting himself at the gaming tables.

I’m sure that’s the NFL’s fault, too.

Ever wonder how all the “excuse diseases” lead people to party, drink, gamble, have sex, etc.

As Theodore Dalrymple once wondered, “Why do these excuse diseases never lead one to study the declension of French nouns?”

Wonder how the NFL suicide rate compares to that of Wall Street Brokers.

probably because the vast majority of French nouns, just as English nouns, do not decline...

he should have said ‘Latin nouns’...
