Well, read the article. All players use pain killers from time to time, I imagine, but most don’t end up in rehab.

As for Rush, all that’s been reported that I’ve seen on what actually took him to the hospital was chest pains and concern that he was having a heart attack.

But every article I’ve read has thrown in there that, oh btw, Rush used to be addicted to painkillers. I guess that’s my point: the MSM simply wants to bring that up whenever possible, when others, who might actually have used pain pills to advance their careers, get heralded as “gamers” and “tough.”

Rush's father died at an early age -- heart attack, I think. His family history probably is more telling than his FORMER oxycontin use.
