A pill too far


John Matuszak died on June 17, 1989 of a Darvocet overdose aggravated by an enlarged heart and bronchial pneumonia.  He had admitted to drug and alcohol abuse having been an issue during much of his pro football career, and it isn't clear (to me anyway) whether the final OD was a result of recreational use or self treatment for lingering injuries.  Either way, a sad end.
