Um es nochmal deutlich zu machen: Ich halte diesen Spruch für unsäglich - egal wo und wie er verwendet wird!

@ Northern Cardinal
Komplexe, aufgeilen....schön wie du hier irgendwelche wörter einbringst die von ihrem sinn überhaupt nichts mit der sache zu tun haben. du erscheinst mir ein bisschen wie jemand der versucht fremdwörter zu benutzen um wichtig zu erscheinen, aber nicht wirklich die bedeutung dieser kennst.
naja, schwamm drüber, hier im forum wurde ja auch schon von anderen erkannt was für ein "vogel" du bist.

Wie schon an andere Stelle geschrieben: da entwickelt sich was zwischen piwi und nc...

Aber irgendwie ist diese Diskussion eine Beleidigung für den Verstorbenen, seine Familie, die Freunde und alle, die sich ihm nahe fühlen.

R.I.P.

Im Übrigen gab es wohl noch einen weiteren Todesfall. Diesmal im College-Bereich. Offensive Lineman Doug Schmied vom Illinois Wesleyan College starb nach einem Herzschlag im Training.

:(

Sowas sollte - gerade im Collegebereich -nicht vorkommen. Aber man weiss ja woran es liegt...

... dieser plötzliche Herztod ist auch bei uns nicht ganz unverbreitet. Hat schon einige Sportler erwischt... :cry:

Problem ist wohl, das viele zB ne Grippe nicht richtig auskurieren und munter weiter trainieren, vermutlich teilweise auch dazu genötigt werden: stell Dich nicht so an, bißchen Schnupfen und Fieber! Und schon ist das Herz angegriffen...

Selbst erlebt im Bekanntenkreis: 22, Ref beim Fußball, topfit, gute Figur, keine Krankheiten... abends in´s Bett gegangen und morgens nicht wieder aufgestanden - Herzinfarkt. :roll:
Das Ende der Welt ist nah!

da ist echt was drann, am schlimmsten ist es glaub ich wenn man eigentlich richtig Fieber hätte, aber dann antibiotika schluckt und dann noch richtig leistungssport macht, das hat schon seinen Grund warum man sich bei ner "Grippe" nicht bewegen will

UPDATE:

DENVER -- San Francisco 49ers offensive lineman Thomas Herrion had heart disease and evidence of previous heart trouble when he collapsed and died after a preseason game last month, an official in the Denver County coroner's office said Tuesday.

The coroner's findings confirmed the beliefs of Herrion's family and friends, who were certain drugs played no role in Herrion's death Aug. 20. Herrion's heart condition was caused by factors that are often nearly undetectable, though fairly rare in a 23-year-old athlete in good physical condition.

"It really squashes all the speculation regarding his death," said Frederick Lyles, Herrion's agent. "They appear to be very thorough in their analysis. Hopefully, now people really get off the idea that these guys are overweight, or that drugs or steroids were involved in any way."

Herrion had ischemic heart disease, with significant blockage in his right coronary artery that caused the death of heart muscle, according to Amy Martin, a forensic pathologist and deputy coroner in Denver. Herrion's heart was slightly enlarged, a condition that could be related to anything from heart disease and high blood pressure to heredity.

Martin also said the autopsy revealed scar tissue from a recent episode in which blood was restricted to his heart -- but Herrion probably didn't even realize it.

"From the time that he died, something happened a week or so earlier," said Martin, who found microscopic evidence of organizing heart necrosis.

"Whether he was aware of that was not clear. There are a lot of instances where people have heart attacks and are not aware of them, especially when your jobs requires you to do things that require you to get hurt. He may not have thought much about it."

Herrion weighed about 335 pounds at the time of his death, Martin said. The 6-foot-3 athlete was roughly comparable in size to dozens of NFL linemen -- and the 49ers believe Herrion's cardiovascular fitness was outstanding.

Drug screens on Herrion's blood and urine found only atrophine, a drug administered when medical personnel tried to revive him. There's no indication Herrion's enlarged heart was caused by high blood pressure, Martin said.

Lyles spoke to Herrion's mother after the report was released.

"She's having some roller-coaster days," Lyles said. "She was really happy with the outcome. She's just trying to get some closure, and this will help."

The ebullient lineman, a favorite among his teammates, was on the field for San Francisco's final touchdown drive in a 26-21 loss to Denver, playing exceptionally well and joking with team staff members after it was over.

Players had just finished reciting the Lord's Prayer in the locker room after the game when Herrion collapsed. Though team doctors and medics immediately reached the lineman and took him to the hospital, he couldn't be saved.

"I'm definitely shocked and surprised that someone so young and also in such good shape as Thomas Herrion could have a heart attack," said 49ers offensive lineman Eric Heitmann, one of Herrion's friends. "Thomas passed all the tests at the beginning of the year, and that's what makes this a shock to everybody."

All NFL players receive complete medical exams from their club, including evaluation of their cardiovascular systems, EKG tests, blood tests and chest X-rays, according to the league's collective bargaining agreement. Stress tests are given at the discretion of the clubs' physicians, though the 49ers' medical staff wasn't available to reporters Tuesday.

Herrion repeatedly passed all tests with the 49ers, the club said earlier.

"Our medical experts have not had an opportunity to review the report," NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said. "But based on what we know so far, this may be a case of an unfortunate hereditary condition that is not easily detected, even by the regular and thorough cardiac screening used by NFL clubs. Unfortunately, even young people can be struck without warning by a heart attack."

Herrion, a second-year pro who grew up in Fort Worth, Texas, played two successful college seasons at Utah. He spent part of last season on the San Francisco and Dallas practice squads and also played this spring with the Hamburg Sea Dogs of NFL Europe.

The 49ers held a memorial service in Herrion's honor three days after his death. At his Aug. 27 funeral in Fort Worth, he was remembered as a player who brought joy to everyone and who was dedicated to his family, his religion and to football.

Herrion's helmet, pads and gear still hang in his locker near the entrance to the 49ers locker room at their training complex, along with photos of the lineman in action and at play.

"He was always a real healthy kid out there," Heitmann said. "He never missed a snap, never missed a play. I don't remember him ever complaining about fatigue."
