Erik Kramer, former NFL quarterback, survives suicide attempt
 

A former NFL quarterback survived an apparent suicide attempt Tuesday, when he shot himself at a California motel.

Erik Kramer, who played for four different NFL teams during a 10-year career, was found by Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies at a Calabasas motel, according to NBC News, which cited law enforcement sources. Kramer’s injury was described as not life-threatening by police, but Kramer’s ex-wife, Marshawn, told NBC that Kramer’s sister told her the injury was more serious than cops were letting on.

I know NFL players are at a higher risk of mental illness than the rest of the population.

 

The one thing that hasn't been brought up is the number of players that played in college, high school, junior high, and on down that have had affects.  If we don't talk about it, it never happened I guess.

People bring that up all the time. You just did. Whats your point?

When talking about people living with brain injuries a large majority of the talk is with NFL players, not people that have played other sports.

 

If you want to say that's not true, you are being disingenuous. 
Horrible and shocking news.

 

Hopefully, Erik Kramer will fully recover from the gunshot wound and will get the type of help that will enable him to function much more comfortably.

Dang .... we actually cancelled our prior reservations (Jul 11-15) for the Hilton Garden Inn @ Calabasas.

 

.... dude should have just drove 10 miles north (Woodland Hills) where all the porn is taped.
