[qualified101]

thats a trip down memory lane.

is it me or aren't most of those guys on the list former wwf/wwe wrestlers?

[boogerred]

Most of the died in their 30s and 40s, which in my opinion is way too early to be checking out!!!

Wrestling is going to get it after all the stuff with steroids is finally out with baseball.

[earp]

Well on top of the drugs it is also a life that in continually lived on the road!Add drugs to living on the road all the time and it is a recipe for disaster!
