You wonder if the liver disease was due to the use of PEDs that was prevalent among those Raider teams.

yes, cause it's way better to suggest such things than to just say rest in peace.

yeah those strict mormans don't drink or do drugs, but are big on PEDS . His son said he had liver problems ever since a botched gallbladder operation 20 years ago. Do you really think The Renaissance Man was into that stuff ?

Based on the team history and when he played, anything is possible...I didn't realize Mormons had conquered drug use and other religions hadn't...I feel sorry for his family of course. You also have to live under a rock to not know Alzado and other Raiders tied to this stuff.

Hard to believe that Todd Christensen is gone but he certainly will not be forgotten.

He was a great tight end and I really enjoyed his color commentary.
