http://www.tmz.com/2017/01/19/jets-mark ... arkinsons/ NY Jets legend Mark Gastineau says he's been diagnosed with dementia, alzheimer's and parkinson's ... and suggests it was caused by football. The 60-year-old appeared on 'Sports Zone' on WOR radio and revealed his health issues -- while also saying he's working to help young players avoid the same fate. "I want to get out and I want to help other kids & youths coming into the game," Gastineau said. "There's techniques out there that if I would have had them, I know that I wouldn't have the results that I have now." Gastineau says he does NOT regret playing football -- he just wants to help make the game safer moving forward. "I don't want [my health] to overpower or overshadow the 'Heads Up' program" -- a program that promotes youth safety in football. "I want it to be a warning to mothers and fathers to be able to put their kids into safe places to be able to carry on a team sport that I think is going to be way far beneficial to them then if they didn't have that in their lives." |

Funny, I thought it would've been testicular cancer for sure. |
