Doctor might have had a hand in his nfl benefits being denied and he went off. I seen a outside the lines segment about that.
Wow, I didn't know about his benefits being denied. That can be a life or death sentence when you have nothing much to fall back on, especially during this time. They call it, falling between the cracks. And it happens to us mostly. With Adams only having about three years in the NFL, he wouldn't have seen much of a pension, which he wouldn't have been able to get until he was in his 50's. I have a cousin who played in the NFL briefly and got injured. Luckily he completed his degree, and stayed in contact with people who could help him move along in his career. Sometimes it's hard to believe that giant use to be my little cousin.

I was able to view the video above on you-tube. I just don't know what to say. Even his father had good things to say about the doctor. But how often do your parents see things the way you do after your past 30, or know what's really up in your life, especially when you see yourself going downhill from where you was. Anyway, this is the second straight murder suicide by a Black man in less then a week. Something's been going on way too long in this country, and people have turned a blind eye to it, especially when it comes to treating Black men fairly. Just look at the election. Everybody was represented by at least one group, except the Black man, as though he was invisible. Lets just hope it ain't too late. But killing the neighborhood doctor, his wife, and his two little grandchildren, I can't wrap my head around that. :snoop:
