Another thing to look at is suicides among men who retired from the NBA of MLB.

I suspect that you will see a higher incidence than the age group at large, but I don’t know about other people who play sports.

The NHL has been alarmed lately by a couple of suicides by former players during the last off-season, and they are evaluating if concussions played a role.

Yes, that would provide interesting data.
