RE: Diego Maradona: The Football World Mourns as Legend Bows Out at 60

No doubt he was a brilliant footballer but if you treat your body badly taking drugs and doing stupid things then you won't live to a ripe old age. I think may of us are surprised he even made 60 which is still young compared to how old people live today.

Sort:  

Lesson taken.

But was he indulging in certain unhealthy habits?

Yes. When he was in his late 40's early 50's I can recall him collapsing at a Napoli match suffering a heart attack plus he was so high on cocaine at the time. He was a big druggie and his weight ballooned as soon as he stopped playing football.

This is serious!
Never knew of this but I hope we constantly checkmate our lifestyles and excesses.

Yes it is serious. Read @mvl2304 post from today on Maradona and it tells you how bad he was after he stopped playing. Alcohol and drug abuse mixed with a bad diet is only going to end one way.
