The sports industry is the world’s number one source of entertainment. It produces heroes, crafts legends, and reaps billions in revenues. Yet, many athletes retire only to wake up to a life fraught with pain, anxiety, depression, and incurable diseases. When former hockey players commit suicide, middle-aged football players succumb to dementia and retired boxers lose their limbs to steroids, we ask ourselves: is there a life after sport? Have sports gone too far?
