I never fully understood why he stopped playing. Whether it was alcoholism, lost desire to play or some other factor. It all still seems like a mysterious episode that never achieved full closure with me. He just…disappeared.

If you don't love the game, it's just a job. If the pressure of that job led him down the path it did, I don't blame him one bit for walking away and not looking back. Addiction can be a real bastard, too. Just look at guys like Josh Gordon, same story, could have been at the top of the game, but that internal voice is too loud to squelch.
