Conrad Dobler Comments on Memory Loss, Life After NFL Career

Retired NFL offensive guard Conrad Dobler revealed some frightening effects that may have resulted from the punishment he took on the gridiron in comments made to USA Today's Josh Peter.

The interview ran on Wednesday, and Dobler described the toll football had likely taken on him, impacting his immediate family in a chilling way.

"I have six kids, I don't even know their names," said Dobler, per Peter. "It kind of pisses me off because I prided myself on having such a wonderful memory."

Although that area of his life is frustrating, Dobler explained how he isn't ultimately too bothered by it and how he's grateful for the opportunities football provided for him:

I really don't give a (hoot) about anything other than my score on the golf course.
