They Blamed the Man. No One Looked at the Field.

  This is a tragic story. As a 50 + year Phillies fan, Dutch was always a favorite. If it comes from a certain company, whom I will not name, its probably going to kill you sooner than later. Natural grass is the best way to go! It really is how the game was meant to be played.

  Thank you for continuing to keep focus on this. The additional analysis of Darren Daulton is intriguing. <br><br>What&apos;s more concerning is that municipalities and various athletic organizations continue to install astroturf. The most common reason given is the lack of need for maintenance of grass fields AKA laziness.

  My mom died of the same type of brain cancer. I could see her start to change well before she was diagnosed. 9 months from diagnosis to gone.

  Tom Berengers character &nbsp;in Major Leagues always reminded me of Daulton 😊oddly the stuff Dalton wrote about in his book is in -actual main stream talking points now,let that settle in.Literally every thing you directly mentioned from his book is or has been talked about by our&quot;experts&quot;

  Dutch was the man in Philadelphia. Just a tough MF Man compared to JT Realmuto. He would plow JT at home plate back when sport was rough

  There&apos;s a similar connection to the artificial turf Kauffman Stadium used for the first few decades of the park and brain cancer. Two examples of former Royals who died from brain cancer are manager Dick Howser and pitcher Dan Quisenberry.

  Wow! Thank you very much for making a video to my recommendation. When I first read about this story, I was at my son&apos;s travel baseball game and most of the fields they played on were turf fields that still carry the very same chemical compounds and materials used to make them, to this very day. Your channel is very informative and I&apos;m fairy certain there are plenty of parents who watch your channel and have kids that play baseball and or football on turf fields. Everyone should know about this. Thank you for helping to spread the information.

  Great story! &nbsp;Would have never thought about the turf connection but it’s something to consider.

  I think they should expand the analysis to people who haven&apos;t died but might be demonstrating signs of ill brain health, other forms of cancer, or perhaps respiratory issues, to suggest a few.<br><br>While this is highly speculative, people like Curt Schilling have shown odd and disturbing behaviour post-career. While it is very possible to organically develop conspiratorial beliefs, act out with uncontrolled anger, and articulate very hurtful sentiments, &nbsp;the possible link to some sort of chemical explanation should be examined. Perhaps some lives can be saved, improved, or at least extended. <br><br>I know I have pointed out some errors, and my concern about you being sponsored (it is a tricky thing to find sponsors that are beyond criticism) by Kalshi, I want to emphasize how much I appreciate the investigative reporting you are doing. Not nearly enough people ask why. Why did this person change in that way? Why did a normally pleasant person suddenly become violent or threatening? We instinctively form a character judgment. I do it. I am hoping to not do it so readily.
