Is it possible that Lou Gehrig didn't die from Lou Gehrig's disease? A study of twelve athletes with chronic traumatic encephalopathy -- from frequent concussions -- showed symptoms like Gehrig's. In fact, two former NFL players who'd been diagnosed with ALS actually had this instead. We'll never know for 100% in Gehrig's case -- he was cremated, but he DID have multiple head injuries in his career -- but it's likely that he did have his own disease. (ABC News)
