I read something like that. There was link to Wikipedia article, list of active sportsmen who died in last 150 years, about 50 people. And list of 100+ professional sportsmen who died in last 2 years with sources. Mostly from heart related stuff.

- daenz 5y agoBased on your post, I went digging and found this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_association_footballers_who_died_while_playing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_association_footballer... Year 2021 does look like it could stand out more than other years, but I would like to see the deaths normalized by the number of matches that year. Presumably, there have been fewer football matches during the pandemic, which would make 2021 stand out even more if it is true.
