    The more we're learning about CTE and how it affects the personalities of people suffering from repeated blows to the head ...

    The more I believe all the boxing suicides were actually suicides. (Gatti and all the rest.)

    I think they finally discovered that wrestler Chris Benoit (who killed his family and then himself) didn't suffer roid rage, but that instead his brain was one of the worst the CTE doctors had studied. It was just destroyed from repeated blows and getting hit in the head with folding chairs and **** like that.

    And Turpin's daughter was an infant when he shot her twice and killed himself. (She'd have no memory of it.) The story was the Turpin's other kids looked black, and the daughter he shot had blonde hair and looked white ... and he felt his wife had cheated on him. So he shot the child before he took his own life (but the child lived).
