Low blood sugar, brain embolism, chemical impairment (legal or illegal). He also might have been committing suicide.
Last 2 I can see, but low blood sugar and brain embolism don't make sense. I suffer from hypoglycemia and vision is never impaired bad enough to miss anything that significant. Now if he stumbled and fell into the truck due to those first 2, that makes sense.

Sometimes when I reflect when I was younger, I feel grateful I am still alive.

Tragic no matter how or why it happened.

RIP.

If he was crossing lanes, I'm not sure how you miss a dump truck?

Perhaps listening to music thru earbuds and just looking in the wrong direction. Distractions happen ... although speculating at this point serves no-one.

But low blood sugar will do it. You can go into a coma from this and the period before blackout is a desperate horrible need for sugar, where you lose your composure and do rash things for relief. I sometimes get this way and I have worked it out with my wife what I need if Iask for help.

Oh I know, hypoglycemia is low blood sugar, and like I said I suffer from it from time to time.

The odds of it being any of those are extremely rare though, and more than likely a bad decision gone very wrong. Not the first person to try and beat traffic, or even a train and not win and won't be the last.

Yeah, Gil needs to retire with comments like that.
Should be fired. Anyway, I'd fire him. In today's culture folks are getting fired, cancelled and declared monsters for far less. "Insensitive" speech that i perceive as often manufactured and usually not really a big deal. We're not talking about persecution here. Someone died. Act accordingly Gil.

Yea man it's terrible. Kid had whole life ahead of him yet.

Side note this is a pure example of where social media can be so toxic. Nothing can be mourned or even celebrated (in other cases obviously not this one) now days and no I'm not the old man on my rocking chair on my 40s. Just trying to bypass as much as I can but it's always fighting.

Something good happens like someone saves a baby people fight something bad happens like this people fight.

It's like yea social media connects the world but also allows people to just disconnect from the actual human elements.

I use it purely for sports thankfully

Horrible. I wonder what happened?

Damn.

Just read it today here,right now.

IMO without knowing much was that he was living life in the fast lane.

Now that I’m reflecting back I put life together & hope it isn’t true. Trying to find Faith within myself.

Like Oldschool was like was this a joke & who is Dwayne Haskins? Think please,not Tee Higgins & that effect.

When I look back at NFL players careers you see a pattern.I’ve already made a judgment before I even really know the story.Could have just looked it up without posting.

As a Rams Fan I look back at different stories & players. I get into players & coaches head & try to see who each player is & there promise as players & people.
I know Sean Mcvay had to deal with players & The Rams as a team with such a thing as Black Life matters. Last season Covid.
I look back under Jeff Fisher & IMO he has bad allergies,but then again I also perceive the worst.I’ve hint at what my opinion is & could be totally off base? Just the way his career finished & where he is today makes me believe it might be more true than not?
Like I say I’m a weird poster.I have my own set of problems & this is my outlet & reflect on other,but not totally hold myself to as highly of standards than I would want to be proud of. I try to be honest though & respect peoples opinion.
— anyway - a RAMble.—…..con..

Dwayne Haskins from what I recall beat the crap out of Michigan or won a National Championship.

I’m a USC fan(Pete Xarroll) & am actually looking forward to 2022
with Lincoln? New HC.

I hate Ohio St. In the sense of tradition of the Big Ten, PAC Ten.
East Coast bias has sucked in say CSULB basketball back in the day.
I’ve always been about jr. College’s and giving kids chances as well. The cheating & big money imo from my own history sucks. Weather teams cheat or not kids in AMERICA deserve chances. I’m a gambler at heart. I’d love to take chance with kids.

“ In fact I might try my own thing in bringing something back ? Who knows,but we do need to have purpose in life & solid people to surround our self’s in.

Continue…..

I’m making this a different post because I replied to like Parm & Otto men yesterday about the likes of Todd Gurley & players that didn’t make it in The NFL that could have,but there careers were cut off short.

Most of those players can talk about it. I look back always at Al Davis &
JaMarcuss Russell. Haskins reminds me a little bit of him as a NFL Player who just took the money & didn’t change. Never put the time in.

Todd Gurley ? What about L. Bell who wanted Todd Gurley money after The Rams paid him? He sat out a whole season & didn’t play for the Steelers. As a loupe all this together as I post I start to see more of LIFE & causes.

—Like I’m saying.totally putting the Coach(trailer) before the horse.

As a Rams Fan though & a SC(sports fan) I always look for why & how tragic.

Need to continue,but this is tragic in the sense of a young man’s life was taken. I will finish my point or thoughts later. Today in my own life I need to Pray & be thankful for my own Life & the people that have touched or blessed my life.Honor & respect those who have been less fortunate.
Wishing everyone here a good day & week.
